Abstract
This paper explores the application of interactive genetic algorithms to the creation of line drawings. We have built a system that mates or mutates drawings selected by the user to create a new generation of draw- ings. The initial population from which the user makes selections may be generated randomly or input manu- ally. The process of selection and procreation is repeated many times to evolve a drawing. A wide variety of com- plex sketches with highlighting and shading can be evolved from very simple drawings. This technique has potential for augmenting and enhancing the power of traditional computer-aided drawing tools, and for expanding the repertoire of the computer-assisted artist.
