Aster♤

Cream colored tabby cat, cutely curled into a ball with a paw placed over her eyes. It can be assumed she does it to block out the sunlight.

Not pixel art, just cat appreciation :)

Thank you!! He began as merely shape practice, and I felt he deserved a nice lush background

a cute and simplified illustration of a hedgehog. He is very round, and sits amongst grass. It is pixelart. He is very rotund.

Redrawn thumbnailing of an angry face, similar to Alexandre Cabanel's Fallen Angel painting. It was done in 3 hours with pixel art program, Aseprite.

I read about a technique where you look at a famous painting and try remaking it.
I use Aseprite with a mouse and forced myself to really think about colors. Alexandre Cabanel's Fallen Angel used a lot of blues and greens in the skin.
I'm really proud of the resulting piece.

Ik I made this account for pixel art, but I've been brushing up on some art basics because I sorely need to, and I'm finding traditional art really fun. There's something nice in the way that once the lines down, you just continue. No undo buttons.
It's building a lot of confidence in my lines. :)

Dearest @dropout.tv and whoever does your data analytics: I had to cancel for only one reason.
I have no job right now. :(

Your streaming service is the only one I pay for, and it's my favorite comfort for hard days and nights.
I accidentally skipped the reason input for canceling and felt bad.

You ever see shit your friends draw and just get really enamored.

My friend drew this!!!! That's so cool!!!

Strange rabbit drawing, similar to a cuddly stuffed animal

Same drawing of rabbit, but floppy.

i EXIST.
Back from hiatus to show my silly pixel drawings.

The warmup reminded me of those cute animal stuffies, and so I drew him standing up.
But he can't fully stand because he's a stuffed animal. THOSE ARE BONELESS.

Updated art of high-contrast rose with a signature that reads "ASTER"

FINALLY MADE A SIGNATURE. WHY DID IT TAKE THIS LONG?????

Strong contrasting rose

As a gift, for a friend, I created this rose.
I hope it doesn't blur, as it took a few days to study how shading works with flowers and then translate that into a pixelart form.
In total, it took about 3 days of study + 5 hrs drawin #art #digitalart #pixelart #noai

A moray eel with brown spots. It's face is silly.

When shit hits the fan, and you're about to throw hands, it's a moray (eel)

Thinking about doing art commissions, but struggling to figure out the pricing.
I'm planning on doing tarot-sized cards of pixel art, and the process would be for the person to pick a color (Or color palette) and vibe/feeling.
I used to do this a few years ago, and enjoyed the process.

Three pastel yellow flowers posed as if swaying in a breeze.

Spent a few hours making a piece for a sibling's birthday.
I'm pretty content with how it turned out. :)

After fine-tuning this silly thing, I realized why it was so blurry.
So here is the final version; I limited my color palette as well. :)

Im gonna scream, why wont the image look ok ;-;

Finally finished! I guess I should use tags so it can be seen.

This took 3ish days of trial and error as I was getting used to doing pixel art once again. :)
REWROTE THIS BECAUSE THE IMAGE GOT CRUNCHY

It was supposed to be a warmup!! Why do I do this to myself. ;-;

I've spent 4 days on an art piece. Most of this time was spent fiddling around various designs. It's almost done, and I'm almost happy with it

When a friend compares you to a living version of those sad animal shelter commercials. 💀
I say things that are funny to me, but then they get concerned!
I'm not even 30 yet. :(
30 isn't old, but I wanted to achieve that age before my deflection-based humor horrified the younger generations

I always hear the opening when it's mentioned.

I should mention, it's free and open-source.:)

Hey #pixelart artists, what was your first program?
I began doing pixel art in 2017, on www.piskelapp.com .
It holds a special place in my heart, and I continue to use it when I don't want to open up aseprite.

Vague posting about a friend: I love you dearly, and I'm always happy to listen to your process with art. Its like a magic act, and I leech off your excitement like a vampire.

I'm going to use this site as a progress tracker for my art. I hope to do a small little piece every other day, but we'll see if that actually happens.

A little goat-like creature that is colored green, in the style of pixel art.

After sitting on my ass, I finally made a bluesky.
Then spent 3 hours on this silly profile pic because, as any digital artist would, I focused way too much on tiny pixel placements.
