Brushstroke

Brushstroke is an algorithm designed to emulate the nuanced hand gestures of a painter, forming a minimal, modern, and artistic expression on canvas. It captures the challenge of replicating the subtle fluidity and control in an artist's stroke, whether a thin, straight line or a bold, sweeping arc. The direction and shape of each stroke can vary, simulating the unpredictability of a human touch. These strokes may change in orientation with each gesture or remain steady, sometimes intersecting to form intricate patterns. The composition ranges from a sparse few strokes to an overflowing canvas. With more than twenty parameters, each piece is imbued with its own unique combination of color and form, much like the thoughtful palette selection of a traditional artist.
