Mona Lisa 6,239

The unofficial world record for the most complex dot-to-dot drawing.

A common theme in my work is where I use very basic techniques to create pieces that appear to be very complex. Dot-to-dot drawings are one of the most basic forms of art – all you need is the ability to count. By carefully placing 6,239 dots, I spent 9 hours connecting them all in my version of the Mona Lisa.

 

 

 

 

This is what 6,239 dots look like. It took me about 9 hours to connect them all up.

 

I used a different colour for the dots after every 400 to make things easier for me.

 

 

 

I used a webcam to create my timelapse video.

 

 

 

 

I scanned in the final result and am offering limited edition A2 prints of it on my online store.
