About this work

This painting is made of tiny dots. Blue dots form a rough shape in the middle, like a wobbly figure. Around it, yellow dots spread out in a loose cloud. The background is plain white. The dots are packed close in some spots, sparse in others. It looks like the artist used a tool to tap the dots onto the paper. Try looking up stippling next—it’s how this effect is made.
