pointillistic
adjective
poin·til·lis·tic ˌpȯin-tə-ˈli-stik 
ˌpwaⁿ(n)-tē-ˈyi-stik
ˌpwaⁿ(n)-tē-ˈyi-stik variants or less commonly pointillist
Did you know?
In the late 19th century, Neo-Impressionists discovered that contrasting dots of color applied side by side would blend together and be perceived as a luminous whole when seen from a distance. With this knowledge, they developed the technique of pointillism, also known as divisionism. By the 1920s, the adjective pointillistic was being used as a word describing something having many details or parts, such as an argument or musical composition; it was then applied to the art of pointillism and its artists, the pointillists.
