Two new Artistic Filters
have been added. They offer a variety of options to create fasninating
new illustrations or oil paintings from your existing photo or
image. |
  |
| Filter > Artistic > Graphic Pen | ||
crosshatch:  |
    |
|
| Filter > Artistic > Oilify | ||
| The purpose of the Oilify filter
is to help in turning an existing image, such as from a digital
photograph of a portrait, into something looking like an oil painting. When you select the Oilify effect from the Artistic category in the Filters menu, you can set the amount of oilification through the Size slider. Click Go to apply.  There is quite a bit of computation to be performed in this filter, so watch the status above the menu bar as it races from 0% to 100% done. |
Here is a collection of images
obtained with varying levels of Oilification (by moving the 'Size' slider) |
|
| After appying Oilify, several
more options and filters are useful for added realism and effects. Here
are but a few: (more here: Illustrations) original image (left), and after
oilification (right)
