Goda Smilingyte founder of Art Goda online art gallery - boutique

Hello and welcome to ART GODA!

My name is Goda, and I’m the founder of this online art boutique.

My career in marketing, public relations and education is dynamic, but art is always in my DNA.

I also began my professional at the British Embassy in Lithuania, where I led major commercial campaigns, including a royal visit by King Charles and cultural events featuring British icons like Paul Smith.

I represented the Lithuanian Olympic Team as their spokesperson during the Olympic Games and later worked in e-learning at Hult International Business School - one of the best business schools in the World.

The passion for art never left me.

I was born into the family of renowned Lithuanian artist Aloyzas Smilingis–Elis and his Muse.

From an early age, I was surrounded by artists, critics, and creative minds and watched art come to life in our home.

When family friends came to visit, I absorbed conversations about exhibitions and the evolution of contemporary art. It was only natural that one day I would follow that path myself.

ART GODA is the realization of a long-cherished dream—to bring together beautiful, meaningful, and accessible art, and connect it with people who will appreciate and live with it.

My mission is simple: to help you discover contemporary artworks that inspire, move, and elevate everyday life. There is so much great art out there—unique, affordable, and full of soul—but it’s not always easy to find. That’s where I come in.

Please explore our collections, and if you’re looking for something specific, I’d love to help.

Life truly is better with art—and the more, the better.

Warmly,
Goda
