British artist and Formula One race fan Nikki Douthwaite has taken Seurat's pointilism to a whole new level, creating an eight-by-five portrait of Lewis Hamilton out of discarded hole-punch dots. Roughly 250,000 individual pieces went into the work, which Douthwaite finished just before Hamilton drives for an F1 title attempt at the Brazilian Grand Prix this weekend. But why a race car driver? Says Douthwaite: "I was at the British Grand Prix just a couple of days before I graduated and that's when I decided what I would do next. I am a massive Formula 1 fan and I have been since I was a little girl. And I've always supported McLaren." [Telegraph.co.uk]
