Watercolour Rendering of Portraits

چکیده
Applying non-photorealistic rendering techniques to stylise portraits needs to be done with care, as facial artifacts are particularly disagreeable. This paper describes a technique for watercolour rendering that uses a facial model to preserve distinctive facial characteristics and reduce unpleasing distortions of the face, while maintaining abstraction and stylisation of the overall image, employing stylistic elements of watercolour such as edge darkening, wobbling, glazing and diffusion.

متن کاملFlow-Centric Painterly Rendering
We present a painterly rendering technique that emphasizes smooth line flows to describe important shapes in the image, as well as contributing in an essential part to the final stylistic artwork. Our method uses the smoothed edge tangent flow (ETF) [20] for stroke pathing, and provides an artist-friendly way to control the general look and feel of the image using familiar brush stroke properti...
متن کاملArtistic Rendering of Human Portraits Paying Attention to Facial Features
Artistic painting of human portraits are more challenging than landscapes or flowers. Challenges are eye and nose areas where we need to avoid alterations from their natural appearance. Shades or darkness around eyes, or shininess at the nose tip may negatively impact the rendering result if not properly dealt with. The proposed computerized method attempts to be adaptive to those sensitive are...
متن کاملPerception-based painterly rendering: functionality and interface design
Painterly rendering (non-photorealistic rendering or NPR) aims at translating photographs into paintings with discrete brush strokes, simulating certain techniques (imor expressionism) and media (oil or watercolour). Recently, our research into visual perception and models of processes in the visual cortex resulted in a new rendering scheme, in which detected lines and edges at different scales...
متن کاملHybrid filter blending to maintain facial expressions in rendered human portraits
Artistic rendering of human portraits is different and more challenging than that of landscapes or flowers. Issues are eye, nose, and mouth regions (i.e. facial features) where we need to represent their natural emotions. Shades or darkness around eyes, or shininess at nose tips may negatively impact the rendering result if not properly dealt with. Similarly, a lighter colour around the mouth r...
