	Pointillism
		Pointillism was first introduced in the 1880's by the French artist Georges Pierre Seurat where he used tiny primary coloured dots to generate secondary colours to great effect.
		With pen and ink pointillism, the technique forces you to draw the foreground first and then fill in around them unlike painters who paint on top of background colours.
		For the art historians amongst you, Pointillism is classified as a Post-Impressionist (or Neo-Impressionist) school of drawing and is a product of the Societe des Artistes Independents in 1884.

	Georges Pierre Seurat, French Painter
		The technique of pointillism Seurat employed here was adopted by a group of his followers, the neoimpressionists, and was extensively used in early 20th-century art.
		The subject is an island newly adopted by the Parisian middle class as a place of collective recreation; in the painting the typical patterns of activity seem to isolate the figures rather than drawing them together.
		contributed to French painting by introducing a more systematic and scientific technique known as pointillism or divisionism, in which small dots of color are grouped to create a sense of vibrancy, tending to interact and fuse in the spectator's eye.
