Abstract:
The purpose of this memo is to distinguish between the various meanings that digital painting may have. It is important to have a taxonomy so that intelligent conversation may proceed on such important issues as multi-resolution paint programs. Each type of painting will be discussed in its multi-resolution generalization. The taxonomy here splits painting into discrete and continuous categories and each of these into maxing and non-maxing subcategories.
