new-found inspiration: georges suerat

Lastly, Georges Suerat's piece, which was highlighted in the exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago, was one that  immediately earned a lot of respect from me.

I've personally never seen such a large piece done entirely through Pointillism, so coming across Seurat's piece was awe-inspiring. The close up shot I took hopefully shows clearly enough how painstakingly detailed his work is. This French painter, despite being turned down by the Paris Salon, has quite beautiful large scale pieces that will forever impress me.
