This paper describes the various artistic effects of watercolor and shows how they can be
simulated automatically. Our watercolor model is based on an ordered set of translucent …

Computer graphics systems are capable of generating stunningly realistic images of objects
that have never physically existed. In order for computers to create these accurately detailed …

Stone is widespread in its use as a building material and artistic medium. One of its most
remarkable qualities is that it changes appearance as it interacts with the environment …

Image-based rendering (IBR) refers to a collection of techniques and representations that
allow 3D scenes and objects to be visualized in a realistic way without full 3D model …

Computer animations often lack the subtle environmental changes that should occur due to
the actions of the characters. Squealing car tires usually leave no skid marks, airplanes …

What is computer graphics and what are the conceptual tasks of research in this area? To
the average person the term still conveys more or less the design of-gos and the …

We present a paint model for use in interactive painting systems that captures a wide range
of styles similar to oils or acrylics. The model includes both a numerical simulation to …

We present a general and practical method for computing BSDFs of layered materials. Its
ingredients are transport-theoretical models of isotropic or anisotropic scattering layers and …

An important, largely unexplored area of computer image generation is the simulation of
weathering and its effects on appearance. Weathering results from the interaction of the …

For computer graphics rendering, we generally assume that the appearance of surfaces
remains static over time. Yet, there are a number of natural processes that cause surface …
