This French Neo-Impressionist developed a new technique of painting. He was interested in scientific colour theory. He didn't mix much colour on the palette; his colours blended optically.
Who is this creator of truly scintillating masterpieces?
I seem to recall that even Matisse waa intrigued for a while when he painted studies for 'Lux, Calme et Volupt in 1904, if previous comments have answered the question.

baffled. yet, intrigued.
I narrowed it down, picked my answer and then went searching for the photo. I got it right! (and I won't give it away).

P.S. CP are you still up north?
I know! I know! Georges Seurat, right?
Was it Seurrat?

Georges Seurat. I just saw a wonderful documentary on his "Park" picture and how he painted it, why and what happened to it after it was painted.
I was going to mention Bernadette Peters - wasn't she in "Sunday in the Park With Georges"?
