I had to ditch the nice warm oranges because I felt they wouldn't have great contrast in the stitched version

Sometimes I misjudge the resolution I need for a piece. This was one of those times. I mean it's just two colours, I shouldn't need that much space to work with, right? Hah.

A little something different today! I pixeled up this profile banner for my husband's Mastodon account and really like how it came out.

Light rays instantly make everything 100x more cozy!

#PixelArt #Pixelorama
Pixel art of a bike leaning against a shed near a small garden with a silhouette of a forest visible in the background. The purple bike leans against a small blue shed with a white roof. On the roof is a solar panel. The ground is covered in clover with a small dirt path, and purple wild flowers can be seen growing nearby. The garden has a small white wooden raised bed. In the garden, we see tomato plants on the left, surrounded by marigolds. On the right, we see corn growing tall, with beans wrapped around them, and squash growing at their base. Light rays can be seen coming down from the top right of the scene.
