Squiggleism is a branch of Neo Impressionism.  Neo  Impressionism uses dots of non-blended color, Squiggleism is the same but instead of a dash, has a curve, or undulating type motion from short to very long wavering lines. The ;paint is not mixed by brush but by the eye as one gazes upon the painting. Stefan Duncan created Squiggleism July of 1999 with the painting, "The Glory Tree," at Cape Fear Studios in Fayetteville, North Carolina.

Angel Oak is that for me. Lol.... it all started with the tree...the one I slammed into in a car accident that put me in a coma. It took me on the path to become an artist. And the first painting I ever did back in 2001 or s o of "The Glory Tree" go figure... was of a tree with a glorious sun, an oak tree...go figure.
