101 Dalmations - minus 100

I have a passion for animals and for creating Artistic Portraits of them. I employ a light touch when modifying the photograph into art... My clients enjoy the images as such...

Heavy on the chalk. :)

Used the default Chalk settings in Impressionist and blended with the default settings of Paint Engine's Bad Chalk preset after doing so many preprocessing steps that I stopped counting (and also did this several hours ago just before work, so I wouldn't remember those if I even wanted too) for this rendering. I used CS2's Emboss filter for the relief; set the result to Linear Light and dupped a few times.

Ikroll - You motivated me into working with Impressionist, so here is another attempt...

When I move ten feet from the monitor, close one eye and squint the other - the graphic doesn't look half bad...

Hey George; I really like Impressionist. It' an extremely powerful simplifier. Along with Paint Engine, it really helps with this process. These two filters are the reason I now have CS2, otherwise, I'm a GIMP guy.

Re: 101 Dalmations - minus 100

I was wondering if the doggie may be related to the Hound of the Baskerville
