Abstract
We introduce a two-step method for generating decorative images. In the first step, a special kind of 2D Cellular
Automata (CA) is used as an engine for generating various patterns in pixel format. In the second step, an iterative
relocation system is applied to convert the pixel based pattern into a mesh based system. Example patterns show the
power of the combined method. Also we introduce another way of using the mesh based system: a concept of magic
canvas that maps simple figure into complex decorative patterns.
