I love that effect, would it be possible to give a quick explanation please.
There`s nothing like a bit of cheek, lol

And that's nothing like a bit of cheek, you must try harder next time.

Lucis ,Redfields++ and a concrete texture. Plus at one point I tried duping, blend mode to overlay, Gausian blur (about 15 pixels) then inverted and faded opacity down slightly (maybe desaturated as well??), try that one, it doesn't always come out as you want on all pics but it's an interesting effect.

I'm loving this AHB, combined with some filters and layer blending it's an amazing tool.

Here's my attempt at the oasis.

Thanks a lot for the explanation Peter.
I think I`ll make "Must try harder " my signature, lol

Here is my attempt using Painter Essentials 4.0 Getting lazy and rushed for time I guess. Election season is on us.

[Nasturtium]

this was the first picture I saw here. I've finally worked up the nerve (hubris? audacity?) to do an interpretation of it.

[Janet Petty]

Nice work Nasturtium. I like the abstracted simplicity.

[Photomaster]

Great picture. A little Pixel Bender Oil Paint and Snap Art.

[Veralisa]

I tried for a charcoal & watercolor effect using AHB. This was also my first attempt at "artifying" with my new Bamboo. I'm not too sure of the overall gray effect gotten with a texture, but, oh well.

Good to see this one come back. Experimenting with adaptive edge detection masks with a base undercoat created using Impressionist. I did do some additional things too.
