Welcome to MerikaArt

MerikaArt is my way of sharing the joy, creativity, and inspiration that have always been central to my life. From a young age, I was surrounded by art, thanks to my mom, who is also an artist. She taught me to appreciate the beauty in the world around me and encouraged my love for drawing. That passion stayed with me through my studies and career as an architect and interior designer, where I honed my creative skills.

When I moved to the U.S., life felt like it was shifting in a big way. I turned to art as a way to reconnect with myself, and it quickly became more than just a hobby. It was a source of balance, joy, and fulfillment. Thatā€™s when MerikaArt was bornā€”a space where I could share my creations with others and hopefully bring a little of that joy into their lives.

A lot of my inspiration comes from the animals around me. My rescue cat and dog are constant sources of love, humor, and connection. Watching their personalities shine in everyday moments has influenced so much of my work. I also love spending time in my backyard, feeding and observing birds. Thereā€™s something magical about watching nature unfold in front of you, and it often finds its way into my designs.

Now, as a mom of two daughters, my creative journey has taken on even more meaning. I want my work to reflect the simple joys of lifeā€”moments of play, whimsy, and connection with the world around us. Every piece in my shop is designed by me, and I put a lot of thought into making each item feel special. Whether itā€™s a cheerful wall print, a thoughtful personalized gift, or a playful accessory, my goal is to create things that bring a smile and make everyday life a little brighter.

I believe that creativity has the power to transform how we see the world, and Iā€™m so grateful for the opportunity to share that belief through MerikaArt. Whether my work reminds you of a beloved pet, inspires a moment of joy, or simply adds a little beauty to your home, I hope it brings as much happiness to you as creating it does for me.
