  7. Paintjet

    This is a manipulation I made using diagonal pixels and palette bending - a glitch art method I came up with that involves re-indexing an image with a palette that's incompatible with the original colorscheme for a trippy effect. I called it "Paintjet" because that's the name of the palette I used.

  8. Pixel Art as Metaphor: Graduation as Leveling Up
    Most video games are built around progression. One of the most common mechanics is earning experience points to advance to the next level. “Level up” has become such a widely understood phrase that it translates easily across industries, as seen in this graduation-themed gift card for Target.

  13. Wrath of the Pixel Gods

    This is a new style of pixel art I'm experimenting with. It involves reducing the image's palette to just the primary additive and subtractive colors. Makes for a good minimalist aesthetic.
