What is Pixel Art?
Pixel Art is a form of digital art created by placing individual pixels, similar to assembling a mosaic where each small piece contributes to a larger image. The style is often associated with nostalgia, as it draws on the techniques used in early video game graphics. Pixel art has seen a resurgence in popularity, both as a nod to retro aesthetics and as a distinct artistic style in modern digital art.

A C-type print, also known as a chromogenic print, is a photographic print made from a color negative or slide. The print is created on chromogenic paper, which contains three emulsion layers, each sensitized to a different primary color. After exposure, the paper is processed in a series of chemical baths, where each layer reacts to the chemicals to produce the final image. C-type prints are known for their rich color depth and are widely used in fine art and commercial photography.
Woodblock printing is a technique that uses a carved wooden surface to create an image on materials such as paper or cloth. Ink or paint is applied thinly to the carved surface, which is then pressed against the material to transfer the image. This method has been historically significant in various cultures for producing prints and textiles.
