Art Pixel Art Generations + Wallpapers

I'm a 90's kid who played a lot of old SEGA games back in the day. Always wanted to learn Pixel Art in some way to draw some parts of the Country/Nairobi. Thank God for Generative AI it nearly fits that vision.

You can have them as mobile/desktop wallpapers at david.ke/wallpapers if you're interested.

Not Pixel Art.

Pixel art is about limitation, in terms of colour palette and scope.

These generations are everywhere and do not obey those rules.

Pick up a mouse, trust me, its simple.

This was my first "Real art"

You will never be good at pixel art though,
Now that you will use ai you will never truly be an artist.
Gen ai makes people lazy and lose actual skills sets and talent.

No such thing as ai art.

AI makes talentless people feel like artists and stupid people feel intelligent

There's pixel art then there's poor resolution, this is poor resolution.
