Apply a filter. There is a Photoshop filter for it, I am pretty sure. Which again brings us to a discussion point. Would that be art? What if this man spend time building a Photoshop filter and starting applying the "pointillism" filter to random images. What if he wrote a script scraped the web, applied the filter and then published it out in his image archive. Would that be impressive? Would we have heard about him?
That's not what he is doing though. He is actually manipulating the pixels, applying the filter will not give him any control over the pixels. He wants to do pointillism, not achieve a pointillism-like effect on a regular painting.
Sorry, I think you misunderstood my intention. I was sarcastic. Read my other post. The GP was saying how well had he spent more hours with Photoshop he could have gotten so much better. Then Parent post said how exactly would have improved the art and my sarcastic response was well just applying a filter.
