Artist
Ivette Mejia

Born in the Dominican Republic and raised in Bloomfield, NJ, this visual artist discovered her passion for art at a young age. Her parents supported her interest in art and enrolled her in classes at the local recreation center, sparking a lifelong love for creating art. Her specialty is working with colors, and she uses vivid hues to create pop art and oil paintings on canvas.

Although she studied interior design in college, financial circumstances prevented her from completing her degree. However, her artistic talents continued to flourish, and she began creating art for family events such as baby showers and birthdays. After moving to the Dominican Republic for a year, she honed her skills in an art class and event coordination, painting on a variety of mediums including glass, canvas, wood, and pottery. Upon returning to the US, she launched her 1lovealways line of pop art on coconut shells and started designing quotes on Photoshop to honor humanitarians such as Martin Luther King and Mother Teresa. In Florida, she taught art classes at Michaels, became a vendor at craft fairs with her 1lovealways collection, and also worked on oil portraits. She later landed a job at a historic village doing events and marketing, which allowed her to paint decorations for the events and showcase her work at nearby art shows. Her Cherry Blossom painting was a highlight of her artistic career, showcased in Newark in 2022.
