I am by no means a talented artist, and programming comes much easier to me than pixel art. That's a big part of the reason why I made Stipple Effect, which is essentially a program that you can get the most out of when you leverage your skill as a programmer to make making art faster/better/less painstaking.
You've got a good eye for form and color, your art is simple but effective (as pixel art should be). I'm in the same boat, so I'm going to buy a copy of Stipple Effect.
