strictly speaking not traditional pointillism, but I guess Afremov's method could perhaps be considered a variation of traditional pointillism

both methods are generally based around oil paints, though traditional pointillism almost exclusively uses a brush to apply small spots of colours to a canvas; but small spots of bare canvas may be left exposed between the painted spots to add some light and texture to the painting. This method can give an appearance when viewed at distance similar to watercolour painting, but when viewed close-up will clearly resemble the kind of multicolor halftone printing methods used in magazines, etc.

whereas Afremov mostly used a small palette knife to apply larger spots (or daubs) of colour to build up an image all over the canvas, usually leaving no bare canvas exposed, with any light in one of his paintings coming directly from the combination of paint colours used, this generally gave his art a darker more textured appearance than you'd get with traditional pointillism, with the artwork maintaining it's distinctive bold oil painting appearance whether viewed close-up or from distance.

>Digital drawing of Clara from Doctor Who. The pointillist effect was achieved by using the rotate symmetry tool on firealpaca (it's sorta like a digital version of spirograph and i really enjoyed using it lol!)

What you're showing there is pixelised art. The colours are posterised and the highlights and shadows are rendered as pixels. Pointillism requires that you start by adding points, not creating an image and turning them into a colour grid.

> Belgian artist Georges Lemmen adopted the pointillist style—which used uniform dots or dabs of color to create forms—after seeing Georges Seurat’s A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte at an exhibition in Brussels in 1887. While most artists avoided this systematic and inflexible technique for portraits, Lemmen was one of the few who successfully applied it to a psychologically intense likeness. In this depiction of his sister, Julie Fréderique Lemmen, the artist captured what his daughter described as Julie’s “biting personality” while also signaling her vulnerability through her demure pose.

> In 1886 Vincent van Gogh left his native Holland and settled in Paris, where his beloved brother Theo was a dealer in paintings. Van Gogh created at least twenty-four self-portraits during his two-year stay in the energetic French capital. This early example is modest in size and was painted on prepared artist’s board rather than canvas. Its densely dabbed brushwork, which became a hallmark of Van Gogh’s style, reflects the artist’s response to Georges Seurat’s revolutionary pointillist technique in A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.

> But what was for Seurat a method based on the cool objectivity of science became in Van Gogh’s hands an intense emotional language. The surface of the painting dances with particles of color—intense greens, blues, reds, and oranges. Dominating this dazzling array of staccato dots and dashes are the artist’s deep green eyes and the intensity of their gaze. “I prefer painting people’s eyes to cathedrals,” Van Gogh once wrote to Theo. “However solemn and imposing the latter may be—a human soul, be it that of a poor streetwalker, is more interesting to me.”

> From Paris, Van Gogh traveled to the southern town of Arles for fifteen months. At the time of his death, in 1890, he had actively pursued his art for only five years.
