Mastering Pointillism: Stippling Techniques in Art

DESCRIPTION

Explore the art of stippling through the technique of Pointillism, famously pioneered by French artist Georges Seurat. In this project, students will create a value scale using only dots in their sketchbooks. The objective is to understand how optical blending works to create depth and dimension in an artwork. Participants will select a photograph, create a contour drawing, and apply stippling techniques to reflect three-dimensional qualities. Emphasis will be placed on matching values, craftsmanship, and avoiding outlines for a true Pointillism experience.

Make a light contour drawing of your photograph • Using a pen, start with darkest values first (stippling should reflect 3 dimensional quality) • 3. Dots are DOTS (not dots with tails) • 4.Avoid outlines (shifts in value instead of outlines) • 5. Turning work in (always attach your magazine photo with your name/class period to your drawing) • .

  10. Stippling Skill Practice

  11. You will be graded on the following: • No tadpoles • No outlines • Values match original picture • Used at least 6 ranges of value • Craftsmanship (no pencil lines) • Shows contour of object
