Another Impressionist made rendering. Used Unplugged Colors Saturation filter (unfortunately the Unplugged filters are no longer free; I will one day purchase the Unplugged X filters; fortunate that I still have a copy of the free filters) to enhance the color saturation. Also used Unplugged Tools Renaissance filter to both primitize further the rendering as well as despeckle the white areas (remnants from Impressionist filter process). Also did some smudging for additional cleanup.

I agree, a great pic to work with and marvellous results!

Did some preparation on this in PSPRO and used the new Redfield Sketchmaster (WOW...great plugin!). Liked the result just fine but took it a step further in Painter. Watercolours.

Neve, you're a busy girl today. This is really nice. I'm glad to hear you like Sketchmaster. I bought it a while back and so far haven't found it very useful. I need to spend some more time playing with it.

Steve Conway · #85 12-06-2005, 12:47 PM

Looks a bit like Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia.

Another rendition for your purusal. Or you can just look it over. 8-)

Thank you Catherine! I've done some sketches of the grandkids with top results

Steve, this is great, how did you approach simplifying your image please?

OOPS - you just posted another, I'm referring to your first one

Steve Conway · #88 12-07-2005, 07:34 AM

Glad you liked it Neve, thanks.

Used good ole Buzz to begin with then fooled with blends, saturation, & opacity till I got close to what I liked. I have a tendency, as many do I guess, to keep playing with an image. Have found, however that this will sometimes really increase size if you are not careful, and I end up squashing everything to make it fit.

Thank you Steve, I really couldn't detect it was Buzzed. I have Buzz Simplifier and use it to a fair degree but don't get a result like this.

Many great rendering here !

This looked liike an interesting picture to do in Photoshop and use the Impressionist filter. I did many combinations and now not sure if I can replicate it. Anyway here it is.
