Paper Abstract:
|
Heart shapes are ubiquitous. Among the numerous places they appear are in the artworks of famous artists as well as
children. One of Jim Dines favorite subjects for print making early in his long career was hearts. Most of his hearts are
shaped differently from the usual hearts found in most designs or those given by mathematical formulas. In comparing
heart shapes we naturally considered their underlying characteristics, especially those related to smoothness and
curvature. To that end, some standard image processing procedures were used, and specialized ones developed and
applied. |
