Ran thru virtual painter> Gaouche.
fiddled with color channels a bit.
created a new blank layer and painted with pattern stamp>oil brush.
blended with overlay and opacity reduction.

Marvellous result AP!!! Colours are great.

Just thought I'd add that the original image looks like Gold Hill, in the village of Shaftesbury in Dorset. It's famous for being used in an advert for Hovis bread.
The advert itself has been much parodied.

Thanks Gary....I immediately thought 'England' when I saw it.

Nice one bbuttry! I liked the fact that you turned it around...looks like a whole different place ...by the ocean instead of the hills. Very cool brush work and artistic feel.

Well done BB - that is beautifully done.

Welcome Helena!

I made this into a car ad with a little tuscan landscape throwin in for good measure. I know the houses are more english than italian but at least I changed the colour of the roof to a more italian one.

Now that's inventive! Nice job of splicing the effects.

Here is my attempt as well. I mainly used three different filters. Cannot remember which ones, what order, or how much. Nevertheless, or regardless here it is.

I'm not sure what this will turn out like on a nicely profiled monitor. The one here at work is terrible (too dark). So, I guess it may appear to bright in the correct settings.

The main thing I was attempting here was Water Paper with Watercolor.

I played with the Selective Color, Color Balance and Hue/Saturation to achieve the color scheme I used here.

I used a variety of blending modes to get it to where I liked it.

I usually interrupt Mike Finn's actions for my results but I kind of liked this snowy look. Ran MF pOpArtIsT complete followed with Painted Cartoon action.
