16×16 Pixel Art Grid

A blank 16 × 16 grid of 256 squares, as large as the page allows: each square is 12.2 mm on US Letter and 11.9 mm on A4. Darker lines every 4 squares make it easy to count across and copy a design.

Tip: for the full-size sheet, download the Letter or A4 PDF and print it at 100% (“Actual size”). “Print this page” prints from the browser, which scales the sheet to fit.

Printing tips

  • Print at 100% (actual size) so the squares stay square and the grid fits the page.
  • Felt tips bleed less on 100–120 gsm paper.
  • Colour the outline squares first, then the large areas.
