Boule method

The Boule method is a photographic technique used to create textures, patterns, or artistic effects in images. It involves projecting a series of small, closely spaced points or dots onto a surface, which can be manipulated to produce variations in tone and detail. By controlling the size, density, and arrangement of these dots, artists and photographers can generate different visual impressions, such as shading or texture, in their final print. Essentially, it’s a method that uses pointillism principles with photographic processes to achieve specific artistic or technical outcomes.
