The process is a new medium still in its infancy - the potential of which is largely untapped and its possibilities virtually unlimited. It is safe to say that the medium is so young that those of us who work with Primary Micropointillism have yet to realize its full potential. In order to execute a painting in the Micropoint manner, it is necessary to lay aside conventional and preconceived ideas of painting because this new medium is so different and its application so novel that thinking about painting in the conventional style tends to hamper the ability to grasp the essence of Primary Micropointillism. Fine Art Professor Karl Kumulski at Wayne County Community College tries his hand at Micropointillism. In terms of color, Primary Micropointillism is so akin to what the Pointillists of the past century were trying to achieve, that I am sure they would approve of their offspring.
All secondary colors are mixed in the brain.
In order to understand the foundation of Primary Micropointillism, I want you to think of a canvas made completely black by layers of yellow, red and Blue. You now approach the surface, and with your paintbrush you remove layers of primary color, thereby revealing the underlying colors. It would be accurate to say that painting within the this medium is the art of painting with light. In using these three colors, the artist can achieve the entire spectrum of color including all secondary colors. Primary Micropointillism achieves color so brilliant that, side by side, paintings executed in conventional painting mediums pale in comparison.
