Fun Facts George Seurat believed that allowing the paint color to flow into another color created a dirty tone. The creation of very small dots of color is the mixing of colors itself. George Seurat died at the early age of 31 © 2007 willowbrookacres.com/ seurat.jpg © landau.de/kunsterz/s eurat.jpg © © 2007www.gigliwo od.com/mentos/se urat.jpg
