A lot of digital images are made up of tiny squares called pixels. If you zoom into pictures too much you start to see these blocks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Old games used to use ‘blocky’ pixels as these were all that computers could handle at the time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a go at making your own pixel art using either the 8 x 8 canvas (8 blocks high by 8 blocks wide) or the 16 x 16 canvas. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
