Molly has been primarily a ceramicist, although she also uses many other materials such as paint, wood, wax, wire, etc. Schulps was a part-time lecturer at various colleges and universities throughout Southern California, until 2004, when she started her full time journey at Cypress College where Molly overseas the ceramics program and was the Art Department Chair from 2015-2021. Schulps exhibits her work nationally and is in several permanent collections.
Artist Statement
My work explores the nature of relationships through the animal forms and environment, as well as folkloric references. The animals are the metaphor for our own needs; the need to copulate, pro-create, isolate, create familial relationships and be triumphant. The folkloric references are also a way to investigate family histories and legends.

Owl
By Ted Gall
Located in Santa Monica, CA
Theodore T. Gall began his career in the arts in the mid-sixties as an animator for teaching films and continued to broaden his skills as a graphic designer. Gall has worked in metal since his early days as an artist. Although his work has not been limited to the human form, it has been his primary focus throughout his career. His compelling figures are most often placed in thought-provoking situations. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and the American Academy of Art and has shared his expertise with students at the Clay People in Chicago, The Northshore Art League in Winnetka, Illinois, and the Ojai Art Center in Ojai, California. He has served as a consultant to the Art Institute and to the Illinois Arts Council. Gall has exhibited and garnered awards throughout the country and is acquiring a burgeoning international clientele.
“I intend for my sculpture to be intriguing, both visually and psychologically, to draw your imagination into the pieces themselves, allowing you to come to your own conclusions.”
Theodore Gall’s work is lost wax cast into bronze, aluminum, stainless steel, or welded Corten steel. Many of the larger works are produced in editions of seven or ten while the smaller pieces are one of a kind. While a concept may be repeated many times, each sculpture is unique.
