Pixel Tubes

My drawing adventures led me into the world of pixels.

Pixels are very small, and while the outline is created one pixel at a time, I learned as I had with making patterns that once the outline is drawn, you can select the shapes and fill instantly. After filling, you simple use your special effects to shade by choosing the cutout function.

Because they are so small, you have to work "zoomed in", but they do come out so adorable.

Pixels are great for putting in emails.


After making the first little pink mouse, it was easy to add a cookie to him. I just drew the arms around front instead of at this side. Because I made a pattern for him, I could easily change his coloring this time.

I've done several pixels, and over time, I will display more. I am constantly trying new ways of creating my art.

Graph paper would be one way to design a pixel. But using PSP, you can simply snap on the grid which gives you kind of a computerized graph paper.

Have a great day.

See you tomorrow!
