Stippling 101
created by: April Cole
The proper term for this technique is called
** Stippling **
Stippling is the creation of a pattern simulating varying degrees of solidity or shading by
using small dots.
3.2 million ink dots
Thought I would share this very inspiring video.

Have fun... stippling away.
Have a wonderful Saturday!
Yes, I have stippled! I first tried it after seeing some stippled art at an art fair. It fascinated me and I knew I had to try it. I haven't done any in a long time but after watching that video I think I might like to try it again...only not quite that detailed!
ReplyDeleteWow!! This is absolutely incredible! What a talent to be able to do that... me, I love to splash bright colors onto a canvas and call it a day! Thanks for sharing... happy weekend April!

ReplyDeleteHi April ... Thanks for the lesson. Your work is very beautiful. I have not tried stippling, however I can see how it would be a very meditative process. I so appreciate you visiting my blog and leaving your words on my page. :o) hugs, Donna
ReplyDeleteOMG! WOMAN! YIppee I love to stipple. Most people are like...are you whacko? But to me it is calming. It is still art but I can do it in my sleep...Plus I think it takes great patience to stipple. YEs another woman who stipples. woo hoo!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ladies, for stopping by for a visit! ((hugs))
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear there are some "stippler artists" out there :]
I agree, this takes repetitive motion with loads of patience... but the outcome of the artwork is worth it!!
Love it!
Enjoy...
Yes, I do know that technique I used it a lot backk in 1980's https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/X8GiVH0XqbKTDvJpj0yS9tMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
