Abstract
Computer graphics research has concentrated on creating photo-realistic images of synthetic objects. These images communicate surface shading and curvature, as well as the depth relationships of objects in a scene. These renderings are traditionally represented by a rectangular array of pixels that tile the image plane.As an alternative to photo-realism, it is possible to create abstract images using an ordered collection of brush strokes. These abstract images filter and refine visual information before it is presented to the viewer. By controlling the color, shape, size, and orientation of individual brush strokes, impressionistic paintings of computer generated or photographic images can easily be created.

Fast paint texture
NPAR '02: Proceedings of the 2nd international symposium on Non-photorealistic animation and renderingWe present a technique for simulating the physical appearance of paint strokes under lighting. This technique is easy-to-implement and very fast, yet produces realistic results. The system processes a painting composed of a list of brush strokes. A ...
Lighting with paint
Lighting is a fundamental aspect of computer cinematography that involves the placement and configuration of lights to establish mood and enhance storytelling. This process is labor intensive as artists repeatedly adjust the parameters of a large set of ...
