Molnar, Marcia – “Between Sun and Sage” Oil on Linen
$ 7,500.00
Marcia Molnar is known for paintings representing her life in Arizona. This painting is entitled “Between Sun and Sage”. It is oil on linen and is framed. This is the first piece we have had with a large deer, and it has a gentle feel in person with perfect coloration!
In 2000, Marcia began to experiment with subjects as grand as a sunset in Sedona to the simplicity of pears on a shelf. She has been influenced by Ed Mell, George O’Keffee, and Maynard Dixon.
Marcia says of her art:
“It’s important that my work reflect who I am and what I love. I will always be sitting firmly on the fence between contemporary and traditional realism. It would be nice if I could just settle into a box where people knew what to expect from me and it probably would make things easier for my husband, but what fun would that be? I love the rythm of paint on a canvas too much to give in to tight realism and when I simplify things I begin to miss the beautiful details I find in the world around me.”
Marcia’s father, Jay Schmidt, was an artist, and her brothers, Tim Schmidt and Brad Schmidt, are both artists, as is her husband, George Molnar.

Molnar, Marcia (b.1953)
Marcia Molnar is best known for her work representing her life in Arizona, where she has lived for 30 years. Not limited to any one subject matter, her first paintings were portraits influenced by the Wyeth family and Mary Cassatt. However, in 2000, she began experimenting with other subjects, from as grand as a sunset in Sedona to the simplicity of pears on a shelf, influenced by Ed Mell, George O’Keeffe, and Maynard Dixon.
