A Better Notebook, A Better Calendar
I started MerOrca because I wanted to follow the path of happiness and lighten the weight of the world, one tiny spark at a time. I wanted to break free of constraints, to find people who love notebooks as much as I do, and who go out of their way to find a calendar they can stand to look at each year. These people, like me, need to stay inspired because we have a lot we’re trying to do. My primary intent with MerOrca is to connect with people who are attracted to the message and the merchandise. Choose your highest joy! That means play. The state of mind alone, is your true magic. It's where all your power comes from. These products are created with that in mind, to lift you to that state.
I decided to choose fun without any compromises, for once in my life. I was facing such stagnant limits in my professional life, that I felt I had to make a choice for deliberate positivity and unapologetic joy. My notebooks and calendars became an outlet for me to express love. Childish, naive, exuberant love. Mermaids are mythological and orcas are as innocent as unicorns. I merged their names, MerOrca, because that best represents the energy calling to me. Their themes came to me and beckoned me to follow, leaving the world of cynicism and doubt behind. I felt reborn to this way of being and decided to dedicate myself to a fun existence, through the creation and selling of these notebooks and calendars. And other gifts that are on the way.
The mermaid and orca motifs inspired me to follow mythological themes that expanded into friendly aliens, UFOs (UAPs), and Yeti encounters. I’m trying to include everyone in this spiritual party I’m having. Much of this stuff is made to cause fear in popular media and folklore, so my job is to create images and art that inspire happiness. It sounds simple, but this is my shot. After decades of being too serious about life, this is where I let all of that go and opt for freedom and play. I hope you’ll join me in celebrating bliss itself, through my notebook, calendar, and gift creations.
