Abstract:
We follow in the tradition of stroke based non-photorealistic rendering pioneered by Haelberi [1990]. Inspired by expressionistic paintings such as Van Gogh’s Starry Night, we have begun experimenting with fluid simulation as a tool for brush stroke alignment.
Using simulated fluid fields in the context of stroke based non-photorealistic rendering allows us to produce stroke behaviors which are visually appealing, and which offer expressive potential beyond that of gradient based techniques (such as those used in [Litwinowicz 1997] and [Hertzmann 1998]).
