Paint a Pointillist Composition

Working on a small scale we’ll make a pointillist painting or drawing; suitable media: gouache, acrylic or pastel.

Starting by making swatches of different colour combinations we’ll go on to complete a small painting composed of coloured dots.

Artist for reference: Seurat

Please bring your own materials as detailed below:
For pastel or pastel pencils bring a pale pastel paper. Very dark papers also work well but are best suited to night scenes
If using gouache, acrylic or watercolor a heavy watercolour paper with a cold pressed surface will be fine. Or if you aim to work on a very small scale a hot pressed (very smooth paper is best and can be worked on with coloured pens or watercolour. Some paper will be available from the tutor at cost.
Please also bring a small round brush, a pencil, eraser, drawing board appropriate to your paper size,
Water pots and palette for wet media, tape or clips to attach paper to board.
You will also need a small block to tilt your board or a table easel.
