Easy Pixel Art: Things to Draw on Graph Paper
Pixel art for graph paper: a slice of watermelon, a donut with sprinkles, a hot air balloon, headphones, a guitar, a paper boat, a cactus, a rainbow, ramen, a TV and a shooting star.
The patterns use few colors and clear outlines. Start with the watermelon or the hot air balloon and save the guitar and ramen for later, since they have more small squares.
