About the Artist

I'm Rolitae, a Puerto Rican artist that now resides in Nova Scotia, Canada.

I make pixel art about anything that takes my fancy, but mostly: nature, art studies, and videogames!

One of my goals is to make people curious about their surroundings and learn to care about their environment. ❤

FAQ

Programs and Hardware

  • For pixel art, my program of preference is Aseprite
  • For digital art, I use Clip Studio Paint.
  • I use a Wacom Intuos Pro (medium) tablet, but I also use my mouse for detail pixel art work.

Where does "Rolitae" come from?

In Puerto Rico, the Common ground dove is known as "rolita(s)." I added the -e suffix to "rolita" because I was studying Latin at the time and wanted to pluralize the word in the Latin fashion.
So, at the end of it all "Rolitae" means "common ground doves." 😅

Can I use your art as a profile photo/header/background?

Yes, as long as you credit me. : )

Please do not to sell, profit from, or pass my work as you own, thank you!~

So, why did you open a shop?

I've been making pixel art for around four years now (2024), although my first introduction to the medium was over ten years ago. But even before all that, I used to cross-stitch a little every year! I always kept my eyes open for cross-stitch designs that would captivate me, but not many did.

Once I started doing pixel art more frequently, I realized I could stitch my work and create the patterns that speak to me! And so, I've opened my shop to share my work with you all!

In my nature-inspired cross-stitch patterns, I like to accentuate birds! So they're the main focus of the patterns. They stand alone, proud and colourful! For the rest of my patterns, mainly the videogames cross-stitch patterns, I like to highlight the sentiment of the game, whether it's silly or solemn. I also want to create more patterns related to Books & TV in the near future, so keep your eyes open for that.

Can I make a pattern request?

Yes, I would love to hear your ideas. You may leave a request here. You can also leave your comments on my socials, if you prefer.
