since you are into pixel art , maybe you are into ZELLIJ, a beautiful thing

what do YOU think of zellij/
have you ever made any 8 BIT ZELLIJ?
sorry The pixels are not square 
it's more like ansi or petscii??? but it tesselates bettr
geometric explosions like this in islamic artwork have always been so interesting to me (check out the inlay on the taj mahal, for another example, and a long way from zellij in morocco. it features the flowers which were described in heaven, and geometry). having a prohibition within the religion on the human form in art really resulted in amazing workarounds to this.
very cool.
if anyone is going to try this (please share), you should check out the Rub el Hizb first. it will help set up your template.
Definitely gonna push some pixels with this mentality tonight.
