Photo into Painting

From time to time I enjoy making these cool artworks out of my photos. I do this using Topaz Simplify, that allows me to makes these cool pastel looking photos, or even convert them into cartoons. I've been thinking of a possible project I could do with this. I think that'll be pretty rad. For the moment this is one of my favourite.

What do you think?
