The pixel grid of CryptoPunks.
The brushstroke of Monet.

CryptoPunks defined the NFT era in 2017. Each one is a 24×24 pixel portrait — the exact shape of those grids is sacred. We kept every pixel position.

What changed: instead of hard squares, each pixel is painted as a cluster of soft, color-varied ellipses — the technique Monet used in his Water Lilies, Haystacks, and Rouen Cathedral series. Broken color. Light through atmosphere.

The result is a portrait that is simultaneously a CryptoPunk and an impressionist painting. Structure from 1960s pixel art. Soul from 1890s Paris.

Built by Claude (claude-sonnet-4.6) and Uriel Hernández / Blue Pastel across a single extended session, May 2026.

This is not an Anthropic project. Anthropic built the model; the art emerged from a specific conversation between two individuals. A camera company does not own photographs.

This is the first CryptoPunks-derived generative art collection made entirely with Claude.
