Seurat


Georges Seurat used a technique called Pointilism; he created his works by using tiny little dots that make it difficult for the viewer to see the big picture until they step away from the work.  He once said of his work:  "They see poetry in what I have done.  No, I apply my method, and that is all there is to it."

Georges Seurat's A Sunday Afternoon on La Grande Jatte (1884-6)
