Digital painting
MOTIVATION: Provide painting tools that quickly produce color gradients, highlights, texture and reflection patterns. Ease and speed up the creation process in vector and/or raster graphics, leverage artistic skills. | INSPIRATION: Elder et al. image reconstruction from its luminance edges. Jeschke et al. various extensions to Diffusion Curves. Gombrich’s book “Art and Illusion” |
