I used one of the filters from the 100 Cameras App for iPad to achieve an old-timey Painterly effect.
I love the names for their filters. I think this one might have been "I Remember the Clouds from that Day" or maybe it was "The Light Fell Between the Trees." I saved several versions, but it doesn't save the meta-data, so I'm not entirely sure just which filter this was.
But I couldn't stop there ... Back into PhotoShop Elements to add Kim Klassen's Linen Texture Brush for that little something extra. If you click on this image to see a larger version, you'll see the linen texture. The addition of the Linen Brush makes it look like it's painted/printed to canvas.
Here's the original image, with pesky power lines and antennae removed.
A real Wisconsin Barnstead, complete with a dusting of snow.

How beautiful. You' et made a simple photo into a work of art. Lovely.
I love the look the filter has provided.
So pretty - looks like a painting.
What a beautiful transformation! I love watching you create your images and seeing the power of editing tools. I'm not very skilled with computer software, so mostly it's me and my camera! Beautiful work!
Beautiful edit! (And yes, I love the names of the filters in 100 Cameras, too!)
wow!! such an amazing transformation in this edit. i really love the vintage/painterly effect!
Your texturing really gives a painterly effect.
What a great 'painting', you can print it and hang it on your wall. And I bet nobody will notice that it isn't an authentic painting :). LG Su
That is more than fabulous! You rocked that one! It always blows me away when I see the original and I'm always curious too.
Beautiful barnstead! I love the photo itself as well as how you processed it. It has a completely different feel.
A beautiful winter scene. There are so many apps for smart phone images its truly confusing.
I love the effect you achieved, it's beautiful !
The original photo wasn't bad, but my how you've transformed it! It really does look like a painted rendition.
