Computing L.O.: To create digital art

This week's artistic style is Pointillism. Some of you may remember this art style from a Take One Picture we did a few years ago based on a painting by George Seurat - Bathers at Asnieres. Having checked the dates you would have been in Reception!

This is a completely different style to what you've been doing the past couple of weeks. Have a look at the attached file for more information. The PDF says to use Paint for this task, if you don't have Paint use J2e5 and select the smallest dot on the pencil. As always, have fun and share your artwork with me (je38).
