Why I kept drawing these

I got into pixel art to go deeper into the medium, and for where it was heading. NFT collections build an entire cast off one head, and turning that same head into a different person by moving a few squares is the part I want to push further.

What I got out of it

I still come back to these. They are the clearest proof I have of something I believe about all my work: the tighter the frame, the more honest the drawing has to be.
