This learning resource focuses on Georges Seurat's innovative painting technique known as Pointillism. It explains the concept of Pointillism, where artists use small dots of pure color applied side by side instead of mixing them on a palette. The document covers optical mixing, which occurs when colors are placed near each other, allowing the viewer's eyes to blend them into new hues. Students are encouraged to demonstrate mastery of stippling by creating value scales using dots to depict various shades of light and dark. Additionally, they can experiment with optical mixing by combining dots of primary colors to observe how new colors form from a distance. The resource includes practical exercises like the "Value Scale" and the "Dot Challenge" to reinforce their understanding of these techniques.
