碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊科學系所 === 92 === Water and ink are two important elements in Chinese Ink Painting. By mixing water and ink, we can get different concentrations to show the contrast of an object. To make a painting more vivid, we can also apply the third element, color, to display the nature of an object. In this thesis, we simulate the ink diffusion effects based on observations and analysis of the physical phenomenon, such as the flows of water and ink/pigment on paper. Then we display realistic colors by taking the light reflection and transmission between pigments and paper, namely the Kubelka-Munk theory [15], into consideration. We also use tablet pen as an input device to create an interactive painting system for users to draw a Chinese Ink Painting with color pigments.
