This work aims to improve impression of space and texture by applying stroke textures of paintings to photographs. The spacefrequency element of the original image was matched to that of the brush stroke texture, while the phase information maintainsthe original one. Brush stroke was added along the edge of the image (outline). In the part without the outline, a verticaldirection to the inclination of the gradation was selected. In the result of the subjective evaluation of the made images, thetexture with a large stroke was preferred for the low frequency image like the portrait etc. and also for the high frequency image such as the flower garden and buddhist temples.
