Mark's Art Resource has been instantiated to leave a better footprint behind. We support communities as a resource to leave an artistic "mark" that is reflective of their values and promotes a positive and nurturing atmosphere.
While officially founded during the dark ages in 2025, Mark has been working since 2017 within small communities providing small "odd-jobs" here and there during his travels. Our reach has begun in Morgantown, WV, but gone as far as the Washington D.C. Metropolitan area, the beaches of Mexico, and even bars in London!
Our goal is to support as many communities as we can, avoid selling our souls, and provide a better life for ourselves and those around us. We will always work to accomodate your needs and support you to the best of our abilities.
Mission
To provide an artistic resource for communities to express their culture and values.
Vision
To be financially-sound doing what we love and leaving a positive impact on the world.
Methodology
To conduct our business ethically, responsibly, and without a second thought.
Meet our Team!
Mark Riesco heils from the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area. His official title is Peasant and he began spreading his art in high school with doodles and such; however, he attended West Virginia University in 2016 and graduated in 2021 with a Bachelor's in Art Business.
While working full-time, he attended George Mason University and graduated with a Master's degree in Business Administration in 2025. He's now had some free time, so he's said screw it - let's get some artsy things started up again.
Mark has always had a passion for art. He specializes in oil paintings using the geometric abstract art style, but he has expert proficiency in a variety of mediums and styles including digital and graphic design. Whether it's a figure of your loved one, a real trippy painting, or an abstract scenery, Mark is ready to support your artistic desires!
Erin McGowan heils from Harpers Ferry, WV. Her official title is Mermaid Princess and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from West Virginia University in 2021.
Now attending the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine, Erin is striving to become a doctor to support small communities and aspires to open a free clinic to aid those in need. She has this amazing problem where she does everything she possibly can, so she has been wrapped up in numerous community programs and has always worked to make a difference.
Despite Mark having the business degree, Erin is the mastermind of our operation. She runs our etsy shop and takes Mark's designs to the next level. If you're wearing our pants, you can thank Erin for the silky-smooth feeling you have.
