I'll help you with that, assuming you're going to make Gameboy-style art following the system's limitations. The OG Gameboy can only display 4 colors (in which they are in hex value, 081820, 346856, 88C070, and E0F8D0) in a screen size of 160-pixel by 144-pixel format. Sprites shown on-screen mostly can have up to 3 out of the 4 available colors that OG Gameboy can use and can only display up to 10 sprites per horizontal line, and up to 40 sprites at a time. Although, you might wanna keep in mind that the graphics/pixel art used on the Gameboy screen requires to use graphic tiles that are 8-pixels by 8-pixels (up to 360 8x8 graphic tiles), so you might have to make each part of the pixel art no more than 8x8 pixels.

Hope that's helps. ^^"
