Born and raised in Fall River, Massachusetts, Marek’s childhood memories of apartment living, unkept yards, abandoned chicken coops, lilac bushes, weeds, wildflowers and an overall obsession with nature, all served as an initial source of her endless fascination with sound, color, and image; the beginning of a blossoming love and appreciation of the world. In this context, Marek experienced spirituality and simply understood the joy of finding God through the freedom to explore and imagine.
Her unique style and interpretation of the Saints, connected the many strands of her personal and professional endeavors resulting in a collection of paintings available for exhibit.
By offering the images in the form of professional quality giclee prints, she hopes that the body of work will inspire women, men and children of all ages and backgrounds to a heightened appreciation of the beauty, courage, and passion that led seventeen extraordinary individuals on their own faith journeys.
