What is Pixelhobby?
Pixelhobby by Oraloa is an exciting and relaxing creative hobby that can keep you occupied for hours.
How does Pixelhobby work?
The principle is to place small plastic cubes on a plate. You don't need any glue, everything fits together effortlessly.
With the help of a pattern, it couldn't be simpler to then place your cubes and create your masterpiece.

WHERE I COME FROM
I am a self-taught painter. I started oil painting by exploring different techniques. Not discovering what I was looking for, I continued to draw for my own pleasure and turned to graphic design for over 20 years, where I explored different visual styles. This is where my style appeared. This change pushed me to return to the countryside and devote my time to my family life.
WHAT INSPIRES ME
This other path allowed me to find a style of artistic expression that reflects my colorful, spontaneous and gentle side. Inspired by the animal and human kingdoms, I like to paint my subjects in a setting of movement and very colorful vegetation. A setting that amazes and transports you into dreams, via the magical universe that emerges. I want to touch that spark of magic present in everyone.
WHERE DO I START
My works follow these stages of production: I start by producing an automatic drawing, then I let myself be inspired by the range of colors to use and finally, I finish with a black line in Indian ink.
ARTISTIC STYLE
My art oscillates between Pop Art, psychedelic and naive art. My works express Joy and awaken us to the Space of emptiness through their bright colors applied in solid colors using acrylic paint. I believe that the black lines surrounding each shape create a distraction for the mind, which creates inner calm. In my opinion, the black lines represent 0.001%* of our material reality, while the solid colors are Space. We believe we are separated from Space when separation is only a tiny part of reality, as we understand it.
FEATURES
My works are distinguished by the absence of a straight segment and the presence of continuous movement. They contain a multitude of shapes, ranging from circles, many of which are concentric, to hearts and flowers which arrange to form different mythical symbols.
* According to quantum physics our material reality represents only 0.001%, the 99.999% is the Space of the quantum vacuum, i.e. the unlimited.

How to make Pixel Hobby Oraloa?
How a symbol works in pixel art ? If you opt for a pixel art project with a symbolic pattern, you will notice that the pattern is divided into several segments.
Each segment of the pattern has 4 symbols, each with numbers, representing a specific color. The symbols correspond to the color numbers on the back of the pixel squares.
Use the color number (shown on the back of the pixel square) that corresponds to the number next to the symbol. The same symbols represent a different color number in each pattern segment.
You can slide the transparent base plate over the pattern segment to see exactly where each color pixel should be placed, eliminating the need to count.
Make sure the arrow on the back of the base plate always points in the same direction to maintain the correct orientation.
Place the pixels on the pins of the base plates with tweezers or your fingers, and they will be fixed immediately, without the need for glue or iron.
Once the pattern segment is completed, you can move the base plate to the next segment of the pattern. Repeat these steps until the base plate is completely filled. You can then proceed with the next base plate, and so on. The pattern will indicate which segment of the pattern corresponds to which base plate.
Is the project complete ? You can join the base plates with dovetails and frame them!
What do you need?
Become an artist step by step
The baseplate has at least 2000 pins (50x40). An arrow is indicated on the back of the base plate. This arrow indicates the orientation of the baseplate and the artwork in pixels. It is important that the arrow always points in the same direction. For example, always up or always to the right.
Our pliers are specially designed for Pixelhobby. Which one is your favorite ?
There are 4 notches on the back of the base plate. These notches are for dovetail connectors. These dovetails allow the base plates to be connected together. You can enlarge the project as much as you want by adding other base plates! On the side of the canvas, locate the corresponding symbol and number on the legend.
Your baseplate keeps moving ? By using the template you can avoid this problem...
Requirements: Template, transparent folder and tape.
1. Place the model in a transparent shirt.
2. Place the template in the correct position on the model so that all symbols are visible.
3. Stick the template to the base plate using adhesive tape (the plastic case prevents the template from tearing).
4. You can then place the base in the template and start "pixelating"!
You would like to order a frame for your pixel ? The order number for the correct frame can be found on the first page of the pattern, the materials list. Contact us.
