PIXEL ART ACTIVITY

You already know what is the Pixel Art. Now, you will be able to practise this technique in Pixilart. Is an on-line drawing program where you can draw a picture pixel by pixel without signing up.

ASSIGNMENT
Draw a picture using Pixilart. You can draw whatever, but the more colour and detail you use, the better mark you will obtein. 
Once you've finished, click "submit drawing", give it a title and make click below "submit a new image". Your image will be stored in the file called "descargas". You will have to send it to me by Edmodo, in the assignment called "Pixel art".

PIXEL ART. DOTS AND THE DIGITAL IMAGE

Many digital images are created by a group of pixels. A pixel is a square shape with information about light and colour. An example of these type of images is the photograph.

Look at this image. Can you count the pixels?

Each square is a pixel.

There are designers who work with very simple images, formed by very few pixels. This is known as Pixel Art or also retro style, low-res or 8 bits. It is similar to the pointillism, except for the technique used to create the images: computer and programs instead of brushes and canvases.
Most of the computer game's images and many mobile phone games are considered pixel art works. Here you are some examples of pixel art

Watch this interesting video about how to become a city into pixels.

DOTS IN SCULPTURE

Dots can also be used to create volume, as this artist called Auguto Esquivel has demostrate with his work conformed entirely with bottons.

DOT AND ART

There has been many artists who has used the dot wthin their works. Dots can be used to create abstract composition (Kandinsky, Delaunay), or to create realistic objects, landscape and people through the "puntillismoa" (Van Gogh, Seurat).Here you are some of them.

Vasili Kandinsky (Rusia)

Robert Delaunay (France)

George Seurat (France)

Vincent Van Gogh (Netherlands)

Roy Lichtenstein (USA)

VISUAL ELEMENTS OF AN IMAGE: THE DOT

THE DOT

- Is the smallest visual element of a drawing (we can draw it with the tip of a pen).

- It hasn´t got a defined shape. That is to say, it doesn´t have to be round. It can have      different shapes (square, triangel...) colours, materials, and sizes. But its size must be  small, otherwise it will be considered a plane.

- It can conform lines, and shapes trhough lineing them up, or putting them into groups.

DOTS AND VOLUME

Whay is there depth in one of the image and not in the other?

A simple group of dots can also simulate farness or nearness, that is to say, the three dimensions. There are many resources to do that:

- Making its size smaller to simulate farness.

- Using warm and light colours to simulate something that is near.

- Overlapping 

- Using the chiaroscure. Dots that are close together make darker areas; dots that are farther apart make lighter ones

ADVERTISING MASCOTS: THE PROPOSALS

I should have upload these images long time ago, but I didn´t find time to do it. Anyway, eventually, here you are some advertising mascots proposed by my first year students to the competition hold in november. Unfortunately, there hasn´t been a winner among these.

WORKING ON CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS

Until now, I haven´t got time to upload these photos of my students working on the christmas decorations. Here you are some of them!
