Paul Signac (1863-1935) was a French artist. Like, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Seurat, and Gauguin, he tried to move away from the naturalism of Impressionism, through a focus on the optical effects created by separated brush strokes and Pointillist style.

Signac’s early works are realistic depictions, with little experimentation of colours. But over the years, he began to observe and adopt the impressionists’ manner. Signac is known, not only for his paintings, but spontaneous studies and sketches in ink and gauche or water colours. Paul Signac had Fascination for colours and the textural impressions through the colours.
