Non-Photorealistic Rendering (NPR) is a class of techniques defined by what they do not aim, the realistic rendering of artificial scenes. NPR techniques, on the other hand, aim to reproduce artistic techniques renderings, trying to express feelings and moods on the rendered scenes. This paper introduces a new style of NPR based on a typical art craft from the northeastern region of Brazil, that uses colored sand to compose landscapes inside glass bottles. A method for generating two-dimensional (2D) virtual sand textures is introduced, as well as techniques for combining them in a point-by-point or in an area basis.
