Haruko Ichikawa is best known the creator of the Land of the Lustrous manga, which is releasing its 108th and final chapter on April 25, a few days from now. Her sole TCG illustration seems to be a reference to her work since Diancie is categorized as the Jewel Pokémon (Houseki in Japanese) and the manga stars an ensemble cast of sentient human-like gemstones called Houseki.
She is also one of the character designers for recent core series Pokémon games. I think it’s confirmed she worked on Chairman Rose and Oleana, but people have theorized she designed Penny and some of the Ultra Beasts…

Oh wow I did not realize that she was the author of Houseki no Kuni!
Very fitting for her to illustrate this card.
