Ran out of inspiration I guess. Here's an attempt anyway.

Gee, Steve, I thought working on those bright colors would perk ya up, hon! Your version is very colorful and pretty.

Again using Xero's Abstractor (guess I'm in my Abstract phase; lol) for this one; lot's of preprocessing (don't ask) before the Abstractor application. Here's the full rendering (attached is a crop).

Lots of motion in that one, Steve. What kind of brush did you use?

Great pic swampy. Wonderful colors

Here is my take.

I used a brush style I created in Gertrudis.

The original which was about 5 or 600 KB looked a bit sharper, but we can't have everything.

Thank you Swampy,

I wish I could paint like that. Actually it's all smoke and mirrors. I applied an assortment of adjustment layers (don't remember what right now) and blends and flattened the image. Then I ran it through Alien Skin's Snap Art Impasto plugin. Finally I duped the layer and used the emboss filter, set to multiply, and reduced the opacity.
