In this paper we compare two initial techniques for such stroke placements. In both cases we assume the target function to be a gray-scale image, thinned black ink serves as paint. Furthermore, the capability of each method, representing different objects is discussed. The result of the combination of both methods with respect to the semantic of objects is presented and compared to the results of each of the initial methods. An in depth exploration of color (and other media) is left for future works; however, an early result is shown in the last section. Using black ink simplifies the setup and the needed comparisons between target and canvas: color calibration can be simplified and we do not have to take care about the 3-d structure of the paint layers. Nevertheless, our framework is already able to work with color; which is why we mention color issues at some places.
