Re: Flowery
Beautiful capture Palms. Thought I would try a mosaic this time. I first created a seamless texture (see attached) using this reference. I then selected the background of the target image and deleted it with a base layer that I filled with the texture. I then ran GIMP's Mosaic filter on the Top layer. Did a few other things too. Here's a higher rez and slightly higher quality version.

Re: Flowery
Really some more cool versions; especially like Steves Van Gogh look. Went the sketch route this time.

Re: Flowery
