About Me

Meraki means to create with love, passion, and a piece of oneself. Combined with my name, Raquela, it becomes Meraqi—an ethos infused into every painting I create. Meraqi is a small, heartfelt business devoted to creating one-of-a-kind hand-painted pet portraits that celebrate the cherished bond between you and your beloved companions. With each portrait, I focus on capturing the unique character and personality of your pet, ensuring that every brushstroke brings their spirit to life. Pets are family, and my mission is to offer a personalized experience that honours their special place in your life, preserving their memory in a lasting and meaningful way
