The Dots and Dye images are a range of pen and ink pointillism drawings .

Essentially the images have been created from thousands and thousands of tiny dots . I discovered this technique by accident , when experimenting with the production of black and white images for ceramic candle jars.

Different concentrations of dots allowed me to create shading in the images . Having just discovered this new style of art , I found myself in lock down for the Covid19 pandemic . The social isolation gifted me the time to create a whole new range.

I found that this technique worked particularly well with animals . I hope you like this collection just as much as I have enjoyed creating it .
