Hi, I’m Mandee - the designer and creative force behind Oculette! ✨🎬👁💖

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always been in love with art - drawing, painting, and creating. I’d dream up beautifully vivid scenes and characters I wanted to bring to life… but no matter how hard I tried, my drawing skills just couldn’t match the exact vision in my head.

That’s where Oculette began. 💕

When I discovered AI as an artistic tool, something clicked. Suddenly, I had a way to translate the vivid, glittery visions in my mind into real, shareable art. ✨

I know that some people still hear “AI” and assume it’s not real art or that it’s some kind of shortcut. And honestly? That’s okay. Because I know how much heart, time, and creative energy I pour into every single Oculette design. ✍🏼

I’ve spent hours learning how to make AI work FOR me, not INSTEAD OF me. My characters aren’t mass-generated… from the first spark of inspiration to the final glitter detail, each piece is carefully styled, curated, and refined by me until it truly feels right, which can sometimes take hundreds of tries. I write the prompts, choose the colors/palettes, direct the entire vibe of the scenes/backgrounds. Every detail is a choice. It’s not about proving anything, it’s about finally bringing the visions I’ve had in my head since childhood to life - exactly the way I’ve always dreamed. 💭

Not everyone will understand that. But the ones who resonate with the emotion and style I pour into each piece? They’re my people. They’re the ones I’m creating for. And I’m so grateful they’re here ❤️

So, if you’ve ever felt the pull of a character, love cult cinema, glossy-eyed emotion, all misted in sparkles… welcome to Oculette. You’re going to fit right in.
