CHALLENGE: April Fools Gallery 2019

It's once again time for our ever popular yearly April Fools Gallery challenge!

For those who do not know the rules yet, the idea is to study the PJ gallery of another pixel artist. Look at the techniques they use, the colours they pick, the subject matters they gravitate towards, etc... Then once you feel like you have a grasp of that person's style, create an image that will fool us into thinking that it's theirs. 

Don't forget to mention the name of your chosen pixel artist in your description!

I had to wait until Friday afternoon to start pixelating, work really eats up any remaining time for hobbies x(


I wonder if you could guess the artist I'm trying to imitate just from this picture
