Michelle Muldrow Explained

Michelle Anne Muldrow (born 1968) is an American painter known for her interior landscapes of big-box retail stores.[1] She studied painting in high school and college.

The paintings, in Muldrow's words, are "…not only the actual structural space and overwhelming chaos of goods, but also the psychology and vernacular of American consumerism."[2] Muldrow paints using gouache. She draws on traditional landscape painting to focus on non-traditional subjects.[3]
