Marjorie Pesek is one of the greatest mixed media artists of her generation and the creator of Layered Imagery™. Over the course of her career so far, she has created inspirational works for private collectors in Europe and throughout the United States, as well as for Lucent Technologies, Warner Brothers, the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, Disney and many more. Recently she has been recognized in various ways including being featured in a special PBS television program and having her exciting equestrian work published on the cover of  Chronicle of the Horse  for the second time in less than a year.

Layered Imagery™ is Marjorie’s name for the technique she developed and has been practicing over the past 20 years, in which she assembles hundreds of photographic images into a single mosaic work of art. Each piece takes several intensive weeks to create, a passionate process of making sense out of chaos. The final piece appears at first glance to be an oil painting. Up close, the viewer discovers hidden images, often those of the subject itself or photos of memorable events. The interaction brings a sense of joy and pride to the collector and viewer.

Marjorie is a media favorite due to her unique artistic style and gregarious personality. She recently has been delighting the equestrian art world with her fresh, exciting work and is currently producing a new collection of sports action images.

She credits much to the artists who inspired the development of her artistic style. "My inspirations were David Hockney, for his photo montage work late in his career; and Pablo Picasso, who could create a single painting that showed many different sides of the same person."

Marjorie Pesek’s private-commission portraits of people, their pets, and their horses are in the homes of hundreds of private collectors. "I call my work Layered Imagery™ because it describes both the process of creating each piece as well as the visual story it reveals. I’m trying to capture layers of life -- to tell a story of the subject’s memorable events, their life journey. My clients are often truly moved by the way I interpret their story," Marjorie explains.

"Many of my collectors say that to live with a piece of mine is to see something different in it every day."
