Dot Dot Dot
Saturday afternoon gone, found me at a workshop dipping strange tools into tiny pots of paint. Have you guessed yet? I was at a dot art worshop. And, my dots bloomed

first dot art workshop -
a cluttered messy table

  2. Happy you dropped by Lillian. Not so much pointilism which uses brushes to form tiny cubes into a painting.
    Dot art has its own tools and its unit is a definite dot
    Happy you dropped by

    Much Love
