What is Pixel Art Generator?

This pixel art generator runs entirely in your browser. Choose from 8×8, 16×16, 24×24 or 32×32 grids, pick from the 12-color palette or a custom color picker. Draw by clicking or dragging with the pen, erase with the eraser, or hit Random Art for an instant pixel-style draft for inspiration; Clear Canvas resets everything. The live preview shows filled cells, and PNG export scales the artwork 16× for a crisp high-resolution image — great for avatars, game assets and social media stickers. Everything runs locally — nothing is uploaded. Built for pixel art, game art prototypes and avatar making.
