Marjorie Pesek has won nationwide acclaim for her modern technique, which results in works so
masterful that they appear to be oil paintings, but in fact are finely detailed layered images.
Her technique allows Marjorie to subtly work unexpected images into the texture, color, and shape
of all elements of her pieces. She is delighting the equestrian art world with her exciting work
and is currently producing a new collection of sports action images. Marjorie is a media favorite
due to her unique artistic style and gregarious personality.
