No.

It can take a lot of polygons.

A good first step depends on how much time you want to spend, how much math you like to do, etc.  I used a text book that someone loaned to me, written by:

That may be more than you want.

That is a big subject.  You might want to have some fun first.  For example, take the corners of an image and make one rectangle from the color information in the corners. Then do the same thing with four rectangles inside of the first. Keep doing it with more and more rectangles and see what happens as you invent better algorithms for making the rectangles. Racket is a fun language to use for such investigation.
