Marler's art has been largely influenced by her father who collected and repaired old typewriters. Her artistic style integrates modern digital photography with her passion for vintage items. The result is a composite of thought and form. She seeks to create art collections and events which integrate history, education, and entertainment.

Artist Statement
My objective is beauty rooted by truth and humor. Simple by design. Inspired by vintage Americana as well as pop artists such as Ed Rusche, Andy Warhol, Roy Litchenstein, Jeff Brouws I bring these antiquated sentiments forward in contemporary statments . . . Facinated by machinery as well as nature, I create beauty from mundane matter.
Deliberately focusing on the pure essentials of an image, I am fascinated by the shadow, negative space, abstract composition, architectural geometry and organic beauty of landscapes.
With an adventourous spirit, I explore techniques . . . My favorite personal statement, " You never know unless you try."
