Confetti artist's painstakingly precise work is spot on
Nikki Douthwaite’s art comes together just like a pointillist
painting — minus the paint and brush. Instead, she uses colored paper dots
stamped out with a hole punch. Up close, the pictures look like confetti. Step
back, and the colors of the painstakingly placed dots mix, and the image comes
into focus. It’s not just art for art’s sake: Douthwaite holds a Guinness World
Record for the largest confetti mosaic for In Seine, a play on Georges Seurat’s
A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of Grande Jatte.
