Molly Perrault graduated from Louisiana State University, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a major in Digital Art as well as minors in Painting & Drawing and Art History. She took an extensive month-long printmaking study in Florence, Italy in 2013. In 2014/2015, she worked for Iron 27, creating graphics for a multi-platform video game: Heroes of Shadow Guard, a turn-based RPG game. After a series of fortunate happenings, Molly now resides in the mountains of Telluride, Colorado, being constantly inspired by the landscape and locale.
We asked Molly a couple of interview questions to better get to know her.
greatest fear?
Infinite boredom
greatest extravagance?
Probably the new pair of roller skates I just ordered.
which talent would you most like to have?
Always remembering names.
most treasured possession?
Good memories.
spirit animal?
The majestic penguin.
favorite song?
“Bound for Glory” by Tedeschi Trucks Band or “Love You Madly” by Cake. Or the entire “Rent” soundtrack if I get to sing along.
winter or summer?
Definitely summer
greatest regret?
I started playing the clarinet in grade school band - wish I had kept that up or taken the time to learn another instrument.
motto?
There’s a line in the Bright Eye’s song, “At the Bottom of Everything” (another favorite): And into the caverns of tomorrow with just our flashlights and our love, we must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge. Not sure if that totally qualifies as a motto, but I like it.
greatest achievement?
Moving to Telluride!
