(iterate think thoughts): Painting with Gaussians
- Last year I built an edge-aware pixelation tool to turn images into pixel art by deforming a grid so that it follows image edges instead of naively using a fixed grid over the picture.
- Using an edge adapter grid bent to inform the color and brightness of the pixels worked well for keeping edges crisp and preserving details.
- I later realized the same edge information could also be applied in a context of digital painting.
