Abstract: In this paper, studyhas been done on the work of various researchers in the field on Non-photorealistic rendering (NPR). NPR is an area of computer graphics that focuses on enabling a wide variety of expressive styles for digital art.It’s subpart, NPR Packing is subject to lot of interest in the field of Digital image processing. In this paper, we try to survey various types of NPR packing and study the work that has been done in this field.
