dc.description.abstract | Traditionally artists directly interact with the paint and canvas usually through the use of a paintbrush. A few applications have been developed that attempt to emulate the artist's true working environment including the different paint brushes, media and paints used. These applications attempt to recreate the way artists interact with the real media, by even making use of 3D brush devices. Art is generally referred to as a means of expressing one's creativity. However more formalised forms of art force the artist to abide by a set of rigid rules. Examples of such art include calligraphy and pointillism. In pointil lism the artist simply draws many dots with contrasting pigments so that from far away, a solid form may be observed. In calligraphy on the other hand, the artist has to follow certain guidelines so as to produce accurate and consistent letters. The gestures required to perform such works are usually quite repetitive. Our aim is to produce a model for the creation of formalised art via a program where the artist would simply describe the gestures performed by the arm to create the drawing. | en_GB |
