Dots step from dense navy at the top through a sand-flecked dusk to a ring of growing sand dots around a bare cream sun on the horizon. Below it a navy sea carries a path of sand dots, broken into short ripples, that widens as it comes forward.

Pointillist Sunset

What you seeDots step from dense navy at the top through a sand-flecked dusk to a ring of growing sand dots around a bare cream sun on the horizon. Below it a navy sea carries a path of sand dots, broken into short ripples, that widens as it comes forward.

What it meansPointillism mixes colour in the eye rather than on the palette. Stand back and the bands merge; step in and they break apart.

Where it worksA soft landscape for a bedroom or a holiday house.
