Image Stylization Through Spatial Filtering
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this research, we offer an algorithm that automatically creates pencil sketches and watercolor (with and without canvas) drawings from user-provided photographs. The main attraction of this algorithm is that it is created from scratch using very basic image processing techniques only without using any complicated functions.
