Pixel art is a digital art form that uses pixels to create shapes, objects, characters and cartoons. A pixel is the smallest unit on a computer screen.
With the right balance of shapes and colors, the artist can create vibrant cartoons that look like a drawing.
Pixel art tends to use as few colors as possible to make the image unified. In fact, some pixel artists can make cartoon shapes with only three or four colors.
You can make pixel art on a computer or draw it on a piece of graph paper to capture the "pixel" look.
