Thanks...before getting started I did some tweaking to bring out the subject more. I then used Virtual Painter and played around with layers & blend modes.

Never remember all my steps because I tweak...probably too much...when I have the rendering and saturation the way I want it.

I like the way you mirrored the subject and brought out highlights. Nice over-all effect, very eye-catching.

Very unique and creative, Lyle. Well done...

I was inspired by Steve's great colors. The primary effects I used were my #djroil24 Impressionist preset and Alcar's variation of it and Photoshop's Dry Brush filter applied to different layers and combined using layer masks. I boosted the saturation a lot, too.

Thanks for sharing your pic, Patricia.

Nice comments on my behalf Danny.

You got a nice pastel look. And you were able to bring the subject out. I struggled a bit with that before I was satisfied enough to start the actual manip.

Hi everybody,
Let's hope that young girl likes our efforts to paint her...
Here's mine, done mostly with Impressionist Old Master tweaked down.

Tell me about Impressionist Old Master. Is it a self-contained plugin, or a preset for the Impressionist plugin ?

Not familiar with it.

Thanks, Patricia!

Steve, Old Masters is part of the Fluff Oil Paint set and it runs with the Impressionist plugin. If you can't get it, I can send you the set.

Have all a nice day,

Sylvia

I can't locate it by doing a Google. Can you post it here? Maybe others would be interested in it also.

Just one more thing if I may. Where the flip is the .tif file char9d?
Didn't see it with my download. The preset keeps alerting me that it is missing.
