Man, makes me wish I was in New York for that. 8-Bit Artist makes some very impressive art. especially his Gradius and Contra paintings.

All that guy does is paint screenshots. Its like paint by numbers. Its not original art.

Fans of my show know I like what Chris (8bit artist) is doing cause I often use his renditions to stump out guests during the trivia sesssions! Bravo Dame – good lookin out as we say.

Mr. Ollan does some very nice work. It takes a lot of patience to do the kind of art he does… Painting 90 degree angles and straight lines are extremely tedious regardless if everything can be gridded or not. 8-bit Artist is a genius for doing something as simple as reproducing an old school screenshot and he does it well.

I won’t be in town to see the show but I love what Chris Ollan does.

i remember reading in an interview this guy did that the most pixels he painted in one painting was almost 38,000. i dont think someone like “geeez” would attempt such a task and get such a great result as this dude did.
