Christmas Scene

Oil Painting Effect + Circle Paint + Image Blending

This picture started as a simple Christmas picture, and ended up as a Thomas-Kinkade-like painting.   This was done by using the Oil Paint Effect on the original, then using the Circle Paint Effect on the original, after which the two were blended in Overlay Mode.  The Original Image was then also blended (also in overlay mode) with the result to add back just a touch of definition.
