Show HN: Painterly – Turn pictures into digital paintings without generative AI

11 points • by flinkerflitzer • today at 5:01 PM • 2 comments • view on HN

Painterly is an application that "paints" input images stroke by stroke to produce digital paintings. GenAI is not used in any part of the production pipeline.

There is a free demo available under Releases on the GitHub repo.

Let me know what you think!

I'm curious about the greedy algorithm vs something like compressed sensing. Can you expand on the algo choice and how it works?
