As media technologies have developed over time, generating novel methods of creating, presenting and interacting with visual information, artists began experimenting with new concepts and possibilities by producing artworks which moved conventional borders of art expression. New media technologies have introduced new opportunities for artistic creation and have brought the computer created desi...

Artistic style transfer is an image synthesis problem where the content of an image is reproduced with the style of another. Recent works show that a visually appealing style transfer can be achieved by using the hidden activations of a pretrained convolutional neural network. However, existing methods either apply (i) an optimization procedure that works for any style image but is very expensi...

A technique is presented for line art rendering of scenes composed of freeform surfaces. The line art that is created for parametric surfaces is practically intrinsic and is globally invariant to changes in the surface parameterization. This method is equally applicable for line art rendering of implicit forms, creating a unified line art rendering method for both parametric and implicit forms....

This paper presents an artistic rendering system for generating 3D images of Chinese paintings using graphics hardware. The user can adjust suitable parameters flexibly to generate different brush styles as his/her hobby, and see rendering results in real time. In this system, we propose a hardware-accelerated method to draw Chinese painting strokes efficiently along visible silhouettes. Three-...

We present a method for frame coherent texturing and hatching of 3D models with a discrete set of colors. Our technique is inspired by various artistic styles that use a limited set of colors to convey surface shape and texture. In previous research discrete color shading was produced by modifying smooth shading with a threshold function. We extend this approach and specify threshold values wit...

In this paper, we explore the affective contents of Impressionism paintings. While past analysis of artworks concentrated on artistic concept annotation, like styles and periods, a more perceptual aspect is to investigate the emotions artists projected into. We propose affective space to fuse all affective factors from features. Since the combination of colors is more sensitive and intuitive to...
