What filter or filters might accomplish this

You might get some of the vibrant color range from Rick Duim's Picasso Redux, but not the swirls and patterns.

Anybody else have suggestions?

successisus, I think this is similar, but not exactly: Trippy Hippy by Carl. Maybe did you use more than one filter for the picture? It looks very good, I hope so, you will find the solution. This is very interested in me.

Perhaps you could take a texture like:

Marble Madness
Swirling Abstract Layers
Hippy Swirls

and then combine it with your original image using:

Graffiti, Tag and Stencil

or one of the other filters that lets you combine images.

You are all so awesome for helping a stranger.

And I do appreciate the help very much.

Love the ideas and I'm testing them as the suggestion come in.

Thank you

Maybe the rainbow colors in this one would help:
Rainbows

and you could adapt/change the star filter to other shapes to put on top of your image:

Star Chaos

Hi

I need to be able to efficiently turn photos into zentangle patterns and other patterns like reaction diffusion.

Then add color(s) and or textures.
I use a Lot of different photos.

Anyway, I need to have the filters figured out and know which comes first etc.
And I'm trying to make a Photoshop template so I can load the image and apply the layers.

I tend to forget what I did when I'm doing various designs so I need a system and having filters figured out and template in Photoshop seems like a smart way.

I messed with last night a photo of a white dog on black background. I applied a pattern I wont use and the color layers are not consistent enough. Too many Gaps too.

But I was just trying to get FF effects I need and make the Photoshop template.

Ugh, It is fun but I sure did spin my wheels a lot.
Still not getting what I need especially when I do the blend modes


Filter Forge filters I used Graphic Novel for the outline, Threshold transparency to remove background and Brightness to alpha to remove from image. Then took it to Photoshop.

I tried doing it in Photoshop without all the filters but kept having the color blend mode issues. And Illustrator didn't trace the image as well as FF.

cant add image too large even after running through RIOT. 4.7 mb

Janeway, are you a star trek fan?

You are right probably, I will be painting/touching up some with tablet pen too. If I do not have all the pattern I want in as a hand drawn pattern or texture already.
