Abstract: Modern animation has adopted ink painting as an expressive medium thanks to its original presenting methods and artistic results. A major difficulty in the world of computer graphics is how to replicate the creative style of ink painting in dynamic animation, notably to preserve its brush strokes, halo effect and ink intensity fluctuations. Aiming at duplicating the artistry of ink painting in dynamic situations through image processing and animation generation techniques, we present in this work a method to imitate the style of ink painting based on computer graphics algorithms and introduce graph neural network (GNN). According to the experimental results, the suggested approach can handle style transitions in animation sequences in addition to realising ink painting style migration on stationary images. At last, this work examines the restrictions of the technology and offers recommendations for further paths of ink painting style reproduction.

Keywords: computer graphics; graph neural network; GNN; animation; ink painting style.
