EKPHRASISTA- pointillista

Colour intermingled in the spectator’s eye divisions juxtapose  ‘as is’ moment ..dot.. by dot.. frozen forever as a ‘still-life’ shot Colours in contrast  one next to another patiently painted dab by dab Planes into particles pigments of paint in patches react divisionist,  pointillist    juxtapose into our eye colour flows. Meticulous,mechanical the illusion into shape palettes of the fleeting made permanent Pointillist People louis hayet  alfred finch& verhaeren   .. then  georges lemmen angrand henri cross van de velde & albert dubois-pillet & lets   not forget camille&lucien father&son pissarro you may know maximillan luce jan toorup& van rysselberghe & you'll already heard of  signac &seurat stand so tall  pointillistas*               one&all Colours in contrast  one next to another, patiently painted dab by dab.
