As someone who originally thought he wanted to be an art teacher and still dabbles, it is commonly accepted practice to refer to (1) pointilism in reference to the use of color/paint (e.g., Pissaro) and (2) stippling in reference to a similar shading by black ink dotting (crowquill pens, rapidographs, etc).
Havel and Beasley were very good at stippling.
I personally like to use pen/ink and color pencil.
