I highly recommend OpenGL. Even if you are just filling texture maps for now,
you have a future proof way to do far more sophisticated graphics.

Oh, and the irony of using OpenGL (an API of unimaginable complexity)
just to write pixels to the screen. Isn't that kind of like using a
thermonuclear device to crack a nut?
