Description

Easy abstract art using pointillism

Instructions

  1. Start by roughly sketching out your flowers. I started at the center of each of my flowers and added simple petal shapes around my central point.

  2. Small 107092 2f2015 01 26 195335 pointilism

    Using a very fine paintbrush and a single color of ink or paint, start filling each petal with small dots.

    Use additional colors to add dimension. I added orange dots on the inner edge of each petal and red dots on the outer edge.
