What is Pixel Art?

Pixel art is a type of digital art form where 2D images are created using squares called pixels. This type of art was originally created on older video games consoles where the graphics were constrained to 8-bit and 16-bit devices. Because of the lower resolution, artists designed innovative ways of placing pixels on a canvas to portray all kinds of 2D graphics. Even though new devices have higher resolutions and color support, pixel art is still a very popular art style used frequently in video games because of how easy it is to create and it’s unique nostalgic style.
