What is Pointillism?

Pointillism is a form of painting in which tiny dots of primary-colors are used to generate secondary colors. It is an offshoot of Impressionism, and is usually categorized as a form of Post-Impressionism. It is very similar to Divisionism, except that where Divisionism is concerned with color theory, Pointillism is more focused on the specific style of brushwork used to apply the paint. The term "Pointillism" was first used with respect to the work of Georges Seurat, the artist most closely associated with the movement. The relatively few artists who worked in this style also included Paul Signac and Henri-Edmond Cross.
 

Pointillism in Pen & Ink Makes a Distinct Impression

These are unique and unconditionally one-of-a-kind pen and ink portraits of your home or cottage.  Each portrait originates from a photograph (photographed by the artist or one provided by the client) and is produced on 9"x12", acid-free, 140-lb. watercolour paper.  Each piece is hand drawn in the style inspired by the pointillist artists of the Post-Impressionist movement.

Perfect for any occasion, a special Birthday, Anniversary, Family Reunion or Holiday.
