Lets keep on it together
As a bitmap manipulation program, Aseprite is great. It is very intuitive and easy to learn. It is also specifically geared towards pixel art and it really REALLY excels at it.
I've used Piskel a bit in the past and Aseprite is much better in my opinion.
Secondly, Pixel art is a fun one. It can be amazingly hard but also amazingly fun; but maybe the wording "Hard" is bad, or misleading. Let me describe it like this: being good at pixel art is kin to godhood, but anybody can be decent. A single wrong pixel can destroy the image.
An example is the cat from the game called INMOST if you have ever played it. (Not the furries you meet later)
That cat is generally a fraction of 16 by 16 bits and it's one of the smoothest, most beautiful animations I have ever seen and it has less resolution than a teen in a porn shop. The guy that animated that is my hero.

Since you're clicking individual squares and have the ability to undo it does help some of the stuff you're saying.
More importantly - just try it. Only way you'll actually find out, we can't know for you.
