I built this over my Christmas break: pixels.style, a simple browser-based pixel art tool that gives your drawings a soft, watercolor vibe instead of sharp pixels. No signup, just open and draw. Installable as a PWA.

Try it: https://pixels.style

Would love feedback on whether it feels fun/useful and what you’d want next!



I liked it, although I'm not an artist, but the process is quite interesting, you made the visualizations of the watercolor look perfect, you did it really powerfully. Can you tell me how? If it's not a secret:)


It's no secret! I used Tyler Hobbs' method which has a great write up here:

Then I tweaked it until it look good for use in my app.


It is a nice tool and really worth while using.


This looks incredible!


Thanks! Appreciate the encouragement
