Description This was a pointillism project for Color Theory class lastyear based on a personal photo. Since we could use any medium we wanted, I went with Copic markers on bristol board. This was the second time I actually used the markers, and found that the flexible brush tip worked very well for creating different sizes of dots. Thirty-six straight hours of stippling gave me a mighty case of claw-hand, though.

Seurat would be proud of you, you know. I just find the points on your face (I presume it's your face? ) too regular in the nose/mouth/cheek area, but it's a detail Very interesting and original, as I don't recall seeing such a piece on DA before. Great job.

Ahh, the piece was so small, any variation of the dots would have either thrown the mouth out of it's shape, or blend together as a solid line. Thanks for the heads up though!

Dude, Duncan.... that's insane. You got some mad impressionsim going on in the back there, like Monet's water lilies. Background's really pretty You've really got a knack for photorealism.
