'''George-Pierre Seurat''' (1859 – 1891) was a [[French]] Neo-Impressionist [[painter]], known for being good with colors. He applied the theories of [[Eugene Chevreul]] to create a technique known as [[pointillism]], whereby small dots of color appear to combine to create the illusion of entirely different colors.
