This is attempt number one in what will be a series of attempts to define a new approach for my photography. Taking a photo and carefully massaging it to have a more illustrated or painted quality to it. There is no magic Photoshop filter to achieve this. A bold new frontier in pixel bending (probably not though, I'm sure someone else has done it already or at least something similar). Since Photoshop CS2 is free from Adobe and I was too lazy to go downstairs to the mac, this was all accomplished in that super old Photoshop environment on PC laptop that does not have a calibrated monitor. I'm friggin living on the edge here folks.

I feel like the technique can probably be pushed quite a bit farther, but I'm pretty comfortable with this first attempt. More to come as this approach evolves.
