This effect was generated in Filter Forge, a Photoshop plugin that allows you to create your own filters.
This filter creates rough matte and oiled relief painting effects with inverse colorizations. It is designed to turn any image into a work of art. Enjoy :)
NOTE: Use "Size, Pixels" control to adjust the desired amount of effect to your image. It is suggested to set size values between 100 and 200 to start. Presets are set at large sizes in order to display the effects on the close up lifesaver image.
NOTE: Further unique relief painting effects can be achieved by increasing lighting height at low "Size, Pixels" control values.
