Stipple vs. Pointillism

I did a little research the other day on the differences between pointillism and stippling - two words I often use to describe my art, but have never known their formal definitions. Well I pulled up trusty old wikipedia, and here is what I found...

"Stippling is the technique of using small dots to simulate varying degrees of solidity or shading. In a drawing or painting, the dots are made of pigment of a single color, applied with a pen or brush; the denser the spacing of the dots, the darker the apparent shade - or lighter, if the pigment is lighter than the surface. This is similar to - but distinct from - pointillism, which uses dots of different colors to simulate blended colors."

and...

"Pointillism is a style of painting in which small distinct dots of color create the impression of a wide selection of other colors and blending."

No paint and no color in my artwork. So now I know I am officially a stippler!
