let img;
//my name is an array of letters
let name = ['a', 'l', 'i', 'c', 'e'];

//load image
function preload() {
  image = loadImage('http://i.imgur.com/S0F2kRi.jpg');
}

function setup() {
  createCanvas(720, 400);
  imageMode(CENTER);
  noStroke();
  background(255);
  image.loadPixels();
}

function draw() {
  let px = floor(random(image.width));
  let py = floor(random(image.height));
  let pix = image.get(px, py);
  fill(pix, 128);
  textSize(20);
  textFont("Impact");
  //call random letter from name array
  text(random(name), py, px);
}

Here is my “pointillism” self-portrait. I wanted to change the points to the letters of my name, so I created an array and called random letters from that array. The letters are called at random coordinates.
