I cut down the image sizes so they where not huge. But elsewhere had a photo topic and me and several beers, did research and ended up finding some fun not related sites, which my drunk self started playing with. Figured a few here may like working and changing some of the dog photo's in this way. using website http://funny.pho.to/antique-oil-painting/ http://www.picturetopeople.org/image_effects/photo_paint/oil_painting_photo_effect.html https://photofunia.com/effects/sketch
I have had a go with some of these effects, but have never thought the results were as good as the original photo. However, I think the 'Antique' one is interesting, and would suit those breeds which, like yours and mine, are still similar to the way they looked in the 18th and 19th centuries.
