When I really, really want to make something awesome, I need strip down an idea to its essentials, and then add what I need. That’s what I did in this basic design of a mountain valley village, the supposed etymology of the word Nepal. Pixel 🎨 WiP, 240x160px.

If you’re not on the floor, squirming in laughter, I can totally understand. I now appreciate the existence of the laugh track for reruns of unfunny tv shows. I’m looking at you, Happy Days, after the Fonz jumped the 🦈 Aaayyy!

Nintendo Gameboy pixel 🎨 160x144px, 2 colors.

Not sure if this qualifies, but it’s a drawing.

Drawn for the Sketch a Day app. Today’s prompt was “funny.”

Pixel 🎨 Nintendo Gameboy resolution, 160x144px, 8 colors.

I needed that earlier bread bun for what I actually wanted to draw, a bunny made of bun, just for fun, and the pun.

It was drawn for today’s prompt (bunny if you hadn’t guessed) for the Sketch a Day app. Pixel 🎨 64x64px, 6 colors.

I made this isometric perspective bun for PixelJoint, 64x64px, 5 colors.

A delicate balance indeed! Pixel 🎨 20 colors.

For the Sketch a Day app. Today’s prompt was delicate.

My contributions for PixelJoint are often more considered, since it is a community of such excellent artists, making me want to do just a little bit more effort. This one is called: “Early Catch.” It’s 60 x 48 pixels, 10 colors and pixel.

Today’s Pixel Dailies theme was cobblestone, and I cobbled it together in isometric perspective 😅 pixel 🎨

Fresh from the isometric digital pixel 🎨 oven…

Drawn, reluctantly (since my art is allowed grudgingly, it seems, not being traditional in nature, like pencil on paper) for the Sketch a Day app.

I keep setting myself up for failure, as a non-conformist, so it appears.

Another one for April Fools Day, a Carrot Kar, they are terrible to drive in, and are generally driven by fools. Drawn for Pixel Dailies, in jest, pixel 🎨

It isn’t really cross-stitched, but I came close (enough) to the real thing by some photo manipulation in Procreate on a pixel 🎨 image I did earlier today. I could do more, but then it’s easier (and faster) to do the real thing instead.

I couldn’t settle on a color palette, so I didn’t. Happy April Fools!

Drawn for the Sketch a Day app in Pixaki on iPad. I used four color palettes: Cold-23, Ministeck-24, Sweetie-16, and Jellyfish-16. If I had Lego bricks, I could build a 32 x 32 pixel 🎨

That’s some hairdo! 🎨 Drawn for the Sketch a Day app, today’s prompt majestic.

Today’s Pixel Dailies theme was Daffodils. I added a unicorn called Daffodil.

For the Sketch-a-Day app, prompt fox. Pixel 🎨 32x32, 10 colors.

Today’s Pixel Dailies theme was CardGame, restriction 5 colors max. Pixel 🎨 64x64, 5 colors.

DDC 2308, pixel 🎨 64x64, 4 colors. Last one on FB, alas. IG was already off my list a few days ago. Goodbye for now, Facebook 🙁

For the Sketch-a-Day app, pixel 🎨 32x32, 2 colors. The prompt was fast.

Today’s theme of Pixel Dailies was sea plane 🎨

Pixel art, 32 x 32, 2 colors, inspired by 1984 Mac OS icons. For Sketch-a-Day app, prompt “dive”.
