Abstract. Modeling and rendering of trees has recently received a lot of attention. Models have been developed that allow photorealistic rendering of trees at interactive frame rates. However, little attention has been devoted to expressive rendering of these models. In this work we present a multiresolution model designed specifically to speed up painterly rendering of trees. Our method proposes a novel clustering technique based on the computation of nested convex hulls. We employ variable multiresolution to obtain efficient models that contain higher resolution representations for the outside of the tree and lower resolution representations for the inner parts. This variable multiresolution method mimics the techniques used by traditional artists to paint trees.

“…Deussen [9] presents a method that creates pen-and-ink illustrations of plants and trees. His method supports the representation of specific plants and trees and not just generic trees like those in [7] and [8]. More recently Di Fiore [10] proposed a method that renders cartoon shaded trees from models generated from L-systems.…”

Abstract. Modeling and rendering of synthetic plants and trees has always received a lot of attention from computer graphics practitioners. Recent advances in plant and tree modeling have made it possible to generate and render very complex scenes. Models developed so far allow low quality and photorealistic rendering as well as a fine control on the amount of geometry sent to the graphics pipeline. Recently, non-photorealistic rendering techniques have been proposed as an alternative to traditional rendering. In this paper we present a method for interactive rendering of vegetation silhouettes. Our goal is to expressively render plant and tree models. Previous methods are either too slow for real-time rendering or they do not maintain the general appearance of a given vegetable species. We solve these two problems in our work.

“…oil paintings). Kowalski et al [11] presented an algorithm that uses strokes to render 3D scenes in a stylized manner suggesting the complexity of the scene, such as fur, grass and trees, without representing it explicitly. These previous works can be used only to create specific art-style images.…”
