Last years Pixel Portrait project

When looking through the work that I have produced whilst in first year of the Viscom degree course, I have decided to try and critique the work produced and see what I have gained from the experienced.

One of the most quirky projects was a week long assignment based on creating an image using pixels. You were able to use any media (non computer based) and had to have a spec of 32 x 32 pixels.

I opted to use small colored sticker, which when used with a grid I manipulated and was able to form an image related to my main aspects of face e.g. eyebrows, hair, nose, eyes and lips, are all distinguishable from one another, inspiration came from early Nintendo video games such as Super Mario and Tetris.
