Points of Color (Pointillism)

Dot by Dot, Create a Masterpiece—Discover Art in a Whole New Way with Points of Color!

The Points of Color Kit offers an engaging introduction to the fascinating art of pointillism, where small dots of color are applied to a surface to create a beautiful, cohesive image when viewed from a distance. This unique artistic technique mirrors the color blending methods used in CYMK printing (like your home printer) and RGB lighting (used in TVs), as well as popular activities like Perler™ bead designs and paint-by-number projects. Unlike traditional painting, pointillism keeps the colors distinct, resulting in vibrant, visually striking pieces.

With the Points of Color Kit, children will explore the world of pointillism, learning about its history and famous artists who pioneered the technique. After a fun and easy introduction to color theory, students will get hands-on by creating their own pointillism art—starting with simple projects and advancing toward a masterpiece of their own design.

This complete art kit provides all the materials needed to complete every project, and there's even extra paint for continued creativity after the lessons are done. Targeted toward 3rd to 10th graders, the kit is ideal for individual use, classrooms, or homeschool settings, and offers an enjoyable 2-3 hour creative journey.
