VINCENT VAN GOGH DIAMOND PAINTING KITS
Vincent Van Gogh was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter and is now truly an icon of western art. His expressive brushwork and bold use of color translate beautifully into diamond paintings. The nostalgia surrounding Van Gogh is also important to note: the fact that many crafted their first Van Gogh “art” in elementary school using charcoal and construction paper is indicative of his broad appeal.
Van Gogh Top Picks:
- Mini Dotz Van Gogh Quartet: this 4-piece diamond painting set is an excellent way to sample four popular Van Gogh designs in a single kit. Each design is interpreted on a small 5” x 5” canvas that comes together quickly. The use of Mini Dotz drills means that the detail is exceptional, even though the canvas is petite. Dotters call this type of craft project “snack size” meaning it’s small and satisfying. These small projects are ideal for beginners or intermediate diamond painters, or to work on in-between larger kits.
- Starry Night: this design doesn’t need much of an introduction! The Diamond Dotz interpretation of the popular original art is spot on. You’ll use just over 25,000 round Dotz drills on a full-coverage, 20” x 16” canvas to recreate this classic full of movement and color.
- Sunflowers: this advanced diamond painting is a stunner. It features a partial-drill canvas with 27,000+ round Dotz drills. The printed background of the canvas emulates Van Gogh’s brushwork; this textural printed effect paired with the vibrant colors of the sparkling diamonds makes it a clever interpretation of the original.
- Café at Night: travelers and art historians alike really dig this design, which is why it’s a fan favorite. Café at Night is an intermediate, full-coverage kit, with 26,000+ round Dotz drills. Perhaps you have visited this café in person?
GUSTAV KLIMT DIAMOND PAINTING KITS
Gustav Klimt was an Austrian symbolist painter who helped define the Art Nouveau style in Europe. His artwork is known for its luxurious gold tones, intricate patterns, and romantic themes, making it a natural fit for diamond painting. The good news for dotters wanting to explore Klimt, is that his art has been translated into a Mini Dotz petite canvas set, standard canvas kits, and the Masterclass advanced series. Options!

- The Kiss: this design is simply spectacular when created with specialty drills to emulate the jewels worn in the woman’s hair. It’s an advanced, partial-drill kit, with printed facial details. You’ll bring this standard canvas kit design to life with just over 40,000 Dotz drills.
- The Kiss (Masterclass edition): this design is such a favorite, that it is also available as an advanced, full-drill kit, in the Masterclass series. The difference here is that the facial details are rendered in Mini Dotz, which allow for the detail. You’ll use more than 52,000 Dotz drills – standard size and minis – to bring this romantic couple to life.
- Woman in Gold: if you’re into ornate detail and elegant compositions, this design is for you. The gold tones throughout the design are exquisite, and the woman’s jewels are rendered with specialty gems. This is an advanced, partial-drill kit, with 70,000+ round Dotz drills.
