As diamond painting became a bigger part of my creative routine, I found myself imagining designs I wanted to work on but couldn’t find elsewhere. For many of these ideas, the final visual style isn’t my own — so I collaborate with pixel artists, sharing the concept and allowing them the creative freedom to design and render the artwork directly as pixel art.

For the designs I do illustrate myself, my style is easily recognised by soft pastel palettes, a restrained use of dark colours, and expressive, oversized eyes. I use AI tools to enhance detail, depth, and colour during the illustration process before each image moves into charting.

Each design is then hand-rendered into a diamond painting chart by professional pixel artists, ensuring clean symbols, balanced colour placement, and a finished piece that’s both beautiful and satisfying to complete.
