The 20th-century Mexican artist who battled polio as a child but still painted her pain into power is Frida Kahlo. She was diagnosed with polio at the age of 6, which affected her right leg and caused a slight limp for the rest of her life. Despite these challenges, she became a celebrated artist known for her powerful self-portraits that reflect her pain and resilience.

Pointillism is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image. Georges Seurat and Paul Signac developed the technique in 1886, branching from Impressionism.
The practice of Pointillism is in sharp contrast to the traditional methods of blending pigments on a palette. Pointillism is analogous to the four-color CMYK printing process used by some color printers and large presses that place dots of cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black). Televisions and computer monitors use a similar technique to represent image colors using red, green and blue (RGB) colors
