Pixel Painting Project

We've all run across pixellated images on our computer or phone. And for those of us who use photoshop, we are used to working with them. What if that pixelated image you see on your computer was three dimensional? This was the idea that led to the Pixel Painting Project. Each "pixel painting" is made up of 100 blocks, of various colors, that can be spun to the color of your choosing. By spinning the colors, participants can create their own work of art. 

The prototype for this project was displayed at Columbus Area Arts Council office for the Art Break Day in September 2018, and attracted many visitors of all ages. Designs are continuing to be developed for an upcoming installation.
