This is my entry into the Gaugan Contest brought to us by @steemean.
How I Made This Image
I visited the Gaugan AI art generator which takes paint strokes and interprets them with real-world imagery to create amazing photoreal images. It's not perfect, but it does an excellent job at creating awesome art.
I uploaded one of the pictures I took yesterday...
Then, I began enhancing the snow and decided to make the water fall a bit... I wanted to use some of @steemean's hidden brushes, but I am not sure how to both upload a picture and some of these extra brushes at the same time - maybe one of you in the contest can help me with that.
This was my final input:
Other Results
I'm primarily looking for good interpretation of the brushes, lack of repetition, good color, lighting and mood. There are always plenty of great options to choose from!
This is the one I chose (below), but I decided to take one final step this time... I took it to Photoscape and did an autolevel and backlight...
