Pointillism is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of colour are applied in patterns to form an image. Georges Seurat and Paul Signac developed the technique in 1886.

Seurat, Georges: A Sunday on La Grande Jatte—1884

Using this technique create your own pointillism inspired art work.

EQUIPMENT:

Paper, acrylic paint/ pens, cotton buds, old pencil.

Here are a few examples of pointillism inspired work.

Once you have completed your amazing art work why not try and create your own pattern using the pointillism technique this time using different sized circles.

For this you can use a cotton bud, pencil, old marker pen ( both ends).

Have fun and keep creative. Send in any art work you would like to upload and share for your friends and family to see in our gallery.
