Research Abstract	Many techniques for generating Non-photorealistic image from photograph have been developed. Among many image processing methods, there is one technique that uses "area division" when artists draw the illustration. Therefore, we proposes the technique of dividing area using basic color categories, and the technique for generating the illustration style image by exaggerating the color of each area. Our goal is to make a tutoring system for studying NPR method by Java programming. The results of this study are the followings : (1)The proposed l system is very useful to understand an algorithm by extending the existing source of the algorithms, and the user could understand various painting processing methods by developing new image filters. (2)The proposed system is very useful for studying NPR using video.
