I put this together in photoshop, going for an oil paint look. I plan to have it printed on canvas.
Its hard to get a sense for how the oil paint effect looks from the limited image size I can post here so here is a preview (attached) and here is a larger version. you should be able to use the mouse wheel to zoom in or the expand arrows in the upper right corner of the browser.



The question is; is the oil paint effect effective enough?

Any of the "oil paint effect" canvas prints I have seen have been disappointing. The texture is randomly placed and doesn't align with the colors, do it doesn't look like a real oil painting. Limited effect from my perspective.

Tha pic is really sharp, though.i think you will happy if you even get it printed on vinyl with no effect.

A print on metal might be nice too.

Thanks for the feedback. Thats why I struggled with it. I like how oil effect works on the trees and snow but whenever there is real detail its hit and miss.

Here is the original

Instead of having a print made find a good local artist and have them actually paint your picture on canvas. I am sure its $ but is no substitute for the real thing and it would be something to keep forever. Worth it.
