Abstract

Digital and new media arts revolution has been reflected in graphic design, and in visual arts, the impact became clear. Furthermore, in 2021, There are five computer generations known to date. The effect demonstrates nostalgia in the first generation. It uses the output in visual arts. The traditional methods of using the computer, but beyond that, became the forms produced in many visual arts sources, the pixels' values add to the artwork. Hence, then to identify the research problem in Pixel art as a visual stimulus in graphic arts. Through systems that makeup and establish the digital components, images, and configurations of the pixel art and visual arts, the researcher also introduces the technical and scientific aspect that includes an optical element to defining the pixel elements and using them within the image and pixel art equations and how to use. The researcher did a practical pixel art project.
