Meera Art Prints
Welcome to the playground where you can enjoy Meera’s paintings and — if you get turned on — dive into the Art Print Shop, choose your favorite artwork and order a print.
We offer museum-quality archival prints. They come very close to the original expression of Meera’s art and they last for generations. For the prints, we chose Hahnemuehle’s Matt FineArt Textured Paper ‘William Turner’, which is similar in haptics, weight and texture to the paper Meera used for most of her paintings.
What Meera said about the prints
“My feeling is that Premendra understands what I want to say with my work and what I would like to express with Osho’s guidance. I never had a prefabricated message to pass on. I want to leave people total freedom in what they perceive in my paintings or what fantasies they stir in their imaginations. Or in other words, let them pick whatever they need.”
“I remember how Osho once gave me such a hit with a Zen stick when he said to me: ‘Perfectionism is a disease!’ What? Perfectionism?! Hadn’t all my Japanese conditioning, even at the art academy, prepared me for just that: ‘Be reasonable, logical, perfect — that is what counts!’ So I had been struggling to better myself continuously. It was only Osho who finally taught me to be spontaneous, to stop trying to be perfect, not to exert myself. Perfection only makes you tense, just relax! And how can one paint a blossom when one is tense. That never works!”
“I had no idea about Premendra’s project. We didn’t conspire and plot how to make a lot of money! No, he just went ahead on his own — that’s what I love! No contract, no stress, just letting everything happen by itself. And the quality is incredible. I don’t even dare touch these prints…you get the feeling the ink is still as fresh as dew. And you know, since the print is the second generation of the painting, it is more objective — and therefore more silent and clearer. As far as I am concerned, this whole thing has sparked off something in me, it helps me to let go of the originals…”

A wonderful way to get to know Meera’s energy as she danced through life is to watch this short video by Hamido (Frank Kardell). He was a close friend of Meera for many years and captured her spirit very well, not only in this video.
The Meera Art Foundation
This website is an affiliated addition to the Meera Art Foundation site. The Meera Art Foundation is is a non-profit and common interest foundation that was founded by Svagito Liebermeister after Meera left her body unexpectedly in an accident in February 2017.
The purpose of this foundation is to preserve the art and paintings of Meera Hashimoto for future generations, to make her work available through exhibitions all over the world and to support artists, who work in the field of meditative art.
Meera was a very unique individual, a painter and artist since early childhood on one hand and an art therapist on the other, who could help people to find themselves and their own authentic creative expression in life. She had an immense love for beauty and for people and not only did she create thousands of paintings in various styles in her long career, she also created and was part of many art communities since 1976 and conducted painting courses and art therapy trainings all over the world.
After coming to the enlightened Master Osho in 1976, her way of painting changed drastically and many of Osho’s books are illustrated with her art work.
By ordering Meera Art Prints you are directly supporting the continuation of Meera’s revolutionary approach to a new way of living, that creativity is an essential force in life and art is just one way of expressing it.
