Pixel Draw — Browser-Based Pixel Art Tool

Pixel Draw — Browser-Based Pixel Art Tool

What It Is

Pixel Draw is a browser-based pixel art creation tool. It provides a 32×32 pixel grid with a brush tool for creating pixel art directly in the browser — no installation, no signup, just draw.

How It Works

Open pixeldraw.vercel.app and you're immediately in a 32×32 grid editor. Click and drag to draw pixels. Switch between grid view and preview mode to see your creation at different scales. Adjust brush size for more precise or broader strokes.

The 32×32 Format

32×32 is the classic pixel art format — small enough to force economy of design, large enough to express real ideas. It's the format of classic game sprites, early icon design, and on-chain generative art.

On-Chain Context

Pixel art has a natural home in NFTs and on-chain generative art. Small, deterministic, visually clear — pixel art translates naturally to blockchain-native assets. Pixel Draw is a tool for creating the raw material.

Why I Built It

Sometimes you need to sketch a quick pixel art idea and you don't want to open Photoshop or install anything. Pixel Draw is for those moments — a quick, zero-friction pixel art tool that lives in the browser and works immediately.
