The document discusses murals and how to create pixel art using Google Sheets. It provides instructions on how to take an image and transform it into pixel art by mapping each pixel to a cell in a spreadsheet. The background color of each cell is then set to correspond to the color of the pixel. Resizing the cells creates a pixelated version of the original image.

Мурал - це стінопис англ. mural — «фреска»; ісп. muro —
«стіна», «мур»
Сьогодні ми спробуємо створити свій мурал.

3. Murals
are works of art that are executed directly onto walls, ceilings, and eve
n sidewalks. Murals often contain positive messages for the community
to enjoy.
Think how murals are usually found in public places, and how they ge
nerally tell a story.

4. MAKE YOUR OWN MURAL
STEP 1: CHOOSE A MURAL
STEP 2: ON THE PICTURE, DRAW A ONE INCH GRID
STEP 3: ON THE BACK SIDE, NUMBER THE SQUARES LEFT TO RIGHT
STEP 4: CUT APART THE TINY SQUARES AND TRY TO REPLICATE THE
SQUARE ON YOUR PAPER
STEP 5: GATHER YOUR SQUARES TOGETHER USING THE NUMBERS ON
BACK AS A GUIDE, AND TAKE A PHOTO.

6. The Art of Collaboration:
From Sheets to the Streets

Google Sheets, in partnership with Refinery29, invited illustrators
Marina Esmeraldo in Barcelona and Mallory Heyer in NYC to create an
original work of art together in a spreadsheet—without ever meeting.

7. Pixel
a word invented from "picture element“
Define pixel: any one of the very small dots that together form the
picture on a television screen, computer monitor, etc.

8. Create pixel art using any image
in Google Sheets
The idea is simple. Each cell in the spreadsheet corresponds to a
pixel in the painting.
You compute the color of the pixel and make it the background
color of the corresponding cell.
Now resize the spreadsheet cells in small perfect squares and
your spreadsheet will look exactly like the original artwork.

9. Create Pixel Art with Google Sheets
It takes few easy steps to make pixel art with Google Sheets. You can
use any free image but make sure they are 300 pixels or less for optimal
performance.

10. Steps
• Open the Google Spreadsheet template and copy it to your own
Google Drive. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lnijmurclvbS4MwUO1K11uRW0jQH8-
GOI3P8Psw-qbw/copy
• Click on ‘Spreadsheet Art’ in the menu bar, choose the Image Upload
option and locate the picture that you want to use from your desktop.
• In the same menu, click on the “Apply Colors” option and wait for the
script to change the background color of every cell on the
spreadsheet.
• Once it’s done, find Step 3 and enter a cell size, like 1 pixel or 5 pixels,
to turn the rectangular cells into squares.
