Pointillism Test Final Product

I finished my pointillism picture.

Here's the final product:

Personal Judgement: I think that this turned out alright. It could have been better, but I tried my best.
Judgement of difficulty: Pointillism is hard. You need to have some real patience to sit down and put little tiny dots everywhere. Not to mention if you want it to look like it's realistic in any way you need to think ahead a lot.
Important points: I remembered from art class that to create shading in pointillism you need to not only use another color, but place the dots closer together. This way you can create a gradual change from one to the other. While mine definitely isn't as gradual as it should be, it's an important thing to think about when doing pointillism.

That's about it. I'm going to go back to researching now.
