The Character Shed
This is The Character Shed - sans characters. The 'Shed' is a piece of pixel art, carried out in Aseprite which houses the characters created. It is based on a 'real' shed, in the garden.Pixel art has an aesthetic all of its own and although it owes its emergence from the early days of gaming culture, the pixel has transcended this to find favour in music, magazine and Fine Art genres. The continued love of the pixel is in undoubtedly due to nostalgia and the love of the games it evolved from and it is thriving. We also like to think it is, in no small part due the beauty of its creation; one pixel at a time...
