Hey pals. Who here is a video game fanatic? We've been gaming since around age 5. And we must say, we have been absolutely amazed at the evolution of graphic design and video game art over the years. All graphic design is based on pixels. Pixel art is a form of digital art drawn with graphical software where images are built using pixels as the only building block. Through pixel art, designers bring video games, among other forms of digital art, to life.
When we came across a Twitter account featuring pixelized animals, it reminded us of all the old-school video games we used to play with highly pixellated animals. Like Minecraft, for example, where the blocky and pixelated graphics are part of the game's entire branding. Pixel art does not have to be made with the purpose of video game design, though! Pixel art is essentially a form of abstraction and is pretty awesome. Check out these pixellated animal tweets!
