from many individuals. First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor Don
Greenberg for his mentoring and enthusiasm. I am grateful for the opportunity
that he has given me and I have had a wonderful experience in the Program of
Computer Graphics. I also thank my minor advisor, Steve Marschner, for his help
and commentary over the course of my research.
Several other faculty members and researchers provided important assistance.
Early in my work, my conversations with Stan Taft proved instrumental as his
research served as an inspiration for my own. Fabio Pellacini proved to be a great
resource for hashing through ideas, as well as advising me on how to port my code

the equipment in the light measurement laboratory and Victor Kord for lending
his expertise on artists’ materials. Bruce Walter and Kavita Bala were always

with. Jon Moon and Piti Irawan were always upbeat and eager to help when I
