*** About Pointillism: Pointillism, a technique pioneered by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac in the late 19th century, is characterized by the application of small, distinct dots of color applied in patterns to form an image. This meticulous method can take many hours to even months depending on the complexity and size of the piece. The technique explores the way the eye and mind blend the color dots into a fuller range of tones, a process termed optical mixing. It's a technique that demands patience, precision, and a deep understanding of color theory to effectively evoke the intended visual and emotional responses.
