I'm Mari, a chemist-turned-artist based in Chicago, IL, USA
...and every color is my favorite!
...and every color is my favorite!
My mission is to capture the world's existing beauty...
...sometimes turn it on its head...
...and perhaps even build upon it.
I want to use my art to add kindness to the everyday...
...and make people smile.
An artist with a chemistry degree? Before devoting myself full-time to creating, I was a chemist by day and a DIY/home decor blogger by night. I'm naturally curious and always experimenting.
My home projects have been featured by HGTV, DIY Network, Today, West Elm, Lowe's Porch, Apartment Therapy, Buzzfeed, Etsy, Bob Vila, Mollie Makes, What to Expect, and countless others.
My art and photography have been commissioned by Urban Outfitters, VH1 Save the Music Foundation, Daniel Wellington, Thoughtfully Magazine, Plumb Notebooks, and more.
I can't cook.
I can barely sew.
I can barely sew.
But, I can paint.
...and I'd love to paint something for YOU!
...and I'd love to paint something for YOU!
I love expressing myself through color - you can find new original acrylics and watercolors here.
And because I love making people smile, I give away a 100% fresh, certified organic new print every month -- a completely free work of art, just for you!
Think my work would be wonderful on fabric? It's your lucky day! Find a few of my patterns as fabric, gift wrap, and wallpaper in my collection on Spoonflower.
My art is also available on phone cases, tote bags, mugs, and more in my shop on Society6.
