## Abstract (arXiv)

Color symmetry implies that the colors of geometrical objects are assigned according to their symmetry properties. It is defined by associating the elements of the symmetry group with a color permutation. I use this concept for generative art and apply symmetry-consistent color distortions to images of paintings by Johannes Vermeer. The color permutations are realized as mappings of the HSV color space onto itself.
