Graphic Design by Knut Olav

Build a pixel art version of one of the options below as a vector image in Illustrator. The idea is to make something that’s as simple as possible, using a limited number of squares (‘pixels’) and flat colours.

Option 1

Use any face (your own, a family member’s or even a pet’s), and create a square pixel art avatar. See with what number of limited colours and blocks you can make a recognisable face.

Option 2

Move away from any representational depiction of an image and go completely abstract.

I made option one, and a portrait of my self!
