I pulled out a photo of my pug, Gracie, and since I've been playing around with Adobe's plug-in, Pixelbender lately I applied the "Oilpaint" filter to it. I then added a vignette border and tonal contrast in Nik's Color Efex program. The final tweak was a bit of sharpening to the eye and tongue.
Jules, The tongue is outstanding! I really like the treatment and the artistic impression on this one. Gracie is cute as ever!:S3:
Hi Julie, I love the tongue and the filtering is very cool. Gracie looks like a lovely dog :S3:
Gracie looks adorable, Jules. The filter treament and open tongue give her a rather goofy look. :bg3: Very nicely done!
wow.. this is outstanding, Julie. I too like the tongue... your use of pb has rendered this a master piece.
Thanks everyone...I'm so glad you liked it. This is one of my first images with the oilpaint filter and I'm rather liking it!
Gracie is lovely. Perfect timing! :S3: Everything flows and fits. Great job, Julie!
Very interesting effect, Julie. To me it looks like an embossed tile :S3:
Especially like the tongue!
Miss Gracie is very cute, Julie. I like the impressionistic painterly quality. Great tongue, and the fold like effect you got with PB oil works well with the folds and creases that pugs have. :S3:
What I like the most is how the curving lines lead me to the curving tongue--perfect! The soft tones are lovely. I like the darker area at the top--sort of a frame. Very nicely done!
