Marešová was primarily an interwar painter, in 1940 she was arrested by the Gestapo for her work during the war period and for her participation in the magazine V boj. After the war, she mainly devoted herself to illustrating children's books and also traveled. She worked on motifs of crowded cities in the interwar period and after the war.
