About Me

An artist, shaped by every place I've called home.

I'm Christina Back, and Diamond Art ME started with me.

I grew up in Germany, but home was never one fixed place for long. Life took me to Denmark, then Spain, and eventually to the Middle East — and I brought a sketchbook everywhere I went. Painting was never my job, never something I trained for professionally. It was just the thing I kept doing, in every city, in every new light. A quiet habit that quietly became a body of work — pieces I'd sell here and there, to people who saw something of themselves in them.

Each place left its mark on how I paint. The muted, sun-bleached tones of southern Spain. The clean, understated calm I found in Denmark. The warmth and texture of the Gulf, where I eventually settled. You'll see all of it in my work — not one style borrowed from one country, but something that only comes from having actually lived in all of them.

The ready-made collection is that journey, turned into something you can hold. Every design in it started as one of my own paintings — sketched, chosen, and approved by me — before it ever became a kit. You're not just making art. You're making mine, one diamond at a time.

Diamond Art ME is still very much a personal project for me, and if you email us, you'll hear back personally, usually within a day.
