Justifying the GIMPressionist

A close friend complained after looking at the previous GIMPressionist work that it looks like I just blurred the image/added jaggies :). A very valid criticism. So here I try to better that and justify my GIMP skills :) .. Note that a painting would never be as sharp as a photo, so some blurring is expected.

So here's another shot at it( click on images to enlarge ):

neat work Vacha! Lax told me about your work, looks good. I should start using GIMP which lies unused on my system. :)

@rs: thanks -- does it get close to something you might paint? :)

@sur: its decent, but not really good,sur. The problem with GIMP is that there are just too many choices/transformations to try out..Someone with more patience can really create magic with it.

@sur: if you installed GIMP long time back, I should tell you that the latest release is GIMP 2.4.5. It has lots of additional transformations and even animation abilities..
