Image Triangulation

When doing my artist research for this project, I discovered two artists who used this technique with geometric/triangular patterns within their artwork.
Those two artists are Aldo Tolino and Lucas Simoés.
I loved the modern feel it adds to the image, and it creates an 'out of focus' feel to the portrait, its just a simple way to modify the image.

I created this effect using an IMAGE TRIANGULATION EXPERIMENTATION website.
(https://snorpey.github.io/triangulation/)
It allows you to edit levels of:
- blur
- accuracy
- point rate
- point count

I experimented with it and got some interesting outcomes.


Using this image, I edited it a few times through this website, and i experimented with different levels of blur and accuracy.

I did the same again with this image, although I decided to experiment with changing the levels of point rate and count. It changed the image dramatically and created two very different outcomes.
As you can see, the image on the left is a lot more detailed and accurate when compared to the original image, this is due to creating a higher level of point rate.  Whereas the image on the right has fewer amounts of shapes within the portrait due to a lower level of point count/rate.
