Digital art collections
In the not-so-distant future, our digital art collections will be finding a new home. We're in the process of migrating everything over to LegacyStarDesigns.net, our new website, and things are coming together nicely. Click the link below to pay us a visit — there you'll find all of the collections, now called Galleries, that have already made the move. More are on their way, so be sure to check back as we continue the transition.
Galaxies 101
Galaxies 101
A four-volume love letter to mid-century optimism and the golden age of space exploration, Galaxies 101 reimagines the atomic-era aesthetic through a contemporary digital lens. Sputtering rocket exhaust, starbursts, swirling clouds, and candy-colored planets all nod to the era's confident, googie-style futurism — but rendered with enough restraint to feel intentional rather than kitschy. Across its four volumes, the collection moves through different corners of that retro-cosmic vocabulary: rockets mid-launch, orbiting spheres, atomic motifs, and starlit skies, all unified by a warm, sherbet-toned palette and the clean geometric confidence that defined 1950s and '60s design.
Koi and Aquatic
Koi and Aquatic
A celebration of life underwater, this collection draws from a wide range of influences — traditional koi artistry, aquarium scenes, ornate decorative patterning, and even a touch of fantasy creature design. Brilliant gold, blue, and rose-toned koi swim through stylized waves and cherry blossoms, while quieter aquarium tableaux capture goldfish drifting past glass orbs and aquatic plants. A few pieces wander further afield into decorative framing and whimsical serpentine creatures, but the throughline is constant: water, scale, fin, and the quiet drama of things that live beneath the surface. Equal parts technical study and personal fascination, it's a collection that clearly comes from genuine affection for the subject.
Mixed Media
Mixed Media
A five-volume love letter to collage, Mixed Media layers vintage ephemera — newsprint, postage stamps, ledger pages, sheet music, ornate illustration — beneath subjects both original and AI-generated, from costumed cats to sailing junk boats. Each volume reassembles old paper and new imagination into something that feels equal parts excavated and invented.
Mushroom Club
Mushroom Club
A four-volume series rooted entirely in hand-drawn original art, Mushroom Club began on paper before it ever touched a screen. Every mushroom, moonlit topiary, and butterfly wing was sketched by hand, scanned in, then brought to life digitally — colored, refined, and occasionally run through a filter or two, with moderate use of photography for elements like the moon and clouds. The result is a body of work that feels both whimsical and deliberate: stacked fungi cascading like architecture, moonlit gardens dense with foxglove and toadstool, and monarch butterflies caught mid-flight against soft, cloud-streaked skies. Ornate frames and aged textures lend some pieces an antique, storybook quality, while others lean fully into fantasy-scale nature scenes. Across all four volumes, the throughline is craftsmanship: this is a collection built by hand, one drawing at a time.
Texting
Texting
A two-volume collection built entirely around the art of lettering itself, Texting turns single words and short phrases into hand-illustrated centerpieces. Each design pairs custom typography — playful script, gothic blackletter, looping flourishes — with ornate frames, stars, mandalas, or florals that frame the text like a seal or emblem. Some pieces are simple and universal ("Yes," "Maybe," "Meow"), while others carry a sharper, more personal edge, turning a single line into something closer to a statement piece than a decoration. Rendered in clean black-and-white linework, the collection has the bold, graphic punch of tattoo flash art crossed with old-school sign painting — equal parts wit and craft.
Wallfowers
Wallflowers
A four-volume celebration of floral arrangement, Wallflowers pairs photographed blooms with hand-built illustrated backdrops to create something between a botanical still life and an heirloom keepsake. Urns and vases overflow with roses and baby's breath, wreaths gather seasonal blossoms beneath ribboned bows, and dense floral patterns repeat into wallpaper-like fields. Soft damask textures, classical frames, and aged color palettes give the collection a quiet, formal elegance — the visual equivalent of flowers pressed into a family album. Across all four volumes, the mood stays consistent: lush, romantic, and a little nostalgic, like a garden remembered rather than one currently in bloom.
Wallfowers
Jacquard/Wallpaper
The earliest roots of this collection stretch back to pencil and paper, and the result is a fully original series of richly patterned, symmetrical designs inspired by jacquard textiles and traditional wallpaper motifs. Damask florals, repeating lotus medallions, and a striking dragon silhouette all play with the same visual language: bold central motifs set against ornate, mirrored backgrounds in deep jewel tones of red, gold, and indigo. There's a regal, textile-like quality throughout, as though each piece could be lifted straight off a bolt of brocade or a wall of antique wallpaper. Across all three volumes, the collection favors symmetry, density, and a kind of opulent restraint — pattern as its own form of storytelling.
