Two-dimensional digital water art creation on a non-absorbent hydrophilic surface

In this paper, we develop a physics based approach which enables users to use a brush for manipulating water. The users can drip and drag water on a non-absorbent hydrophilic surface to create water artworks. We consider factors, such as cohesive force and adhesive force, to compute the motion of water. Water drops with different shapes can be formed. We also develop a converter for converting input pictures into water-styled pictures. Our system can be applied in advertisements, movies, games, and education.
