Summary
In digital illustration, there exist painting styles that combine multiple visual effects specific to painting materials. While these styles offer a wide range of artistic expressions and make illustrations more fascinating, they require artistic expertise in terms of how to apply and harmonize the effects of each painting material. In this study, we define these painting styles as Mixed Painting Material Style, and present an NPR framework to retouch an input image to the style. The framework partitions the input image into multiple regions, and converts the regions with high saliency to oil painting and the regions with low saliency to watercolor. This article also includes a few application examples to verify the effect of the present NPR framework.
