Vexel Art is a style composed of multiple layered shapes and focuses on recreating an imagery using a raster program. The name came from a combination of
vector and
pixel design. It is an entirely pixel-based raster image that imitates the vector graphics style and not necessarily using Vector Programs.
The general idea is that they are raster images that look much like vector and in most cases are created using the same techniques. It may be composed using vector graphic techniques, however it becomes a vexel when the vector elements are rasterized and further manipulations are done in a raster program.
