I really like the first one better. This new one is too abstract for me, can't find anything to relate to.
Absolutely agreed. I posted to show the vast difference at low resolution. So the effect is quite malleable.
And, Linda says she thinks it is not resolution so more experimentation is in order.
Thanks to the both of you!

At first I didn't like and I went away. I came back for another look and started to like it. Went away again. Came back once more and decided I think I could see this framed and up on the wall. I don't think I've had that feeling not liking and then thinking its good enough for a wall hanging before.
Good Job. WOW I surprised myself.
Thanks for sharing.

Well thank you Jim-Pops. Isn't life interesting in so many ways!
Additional info - I said the PP was all done in PS but I couldn't remember and I had flattened the file. That didn't sit well with me so I spent some time trying to recreate the effects. Turns out the effect was done with the PS sliders in Oil Paint. (of course I did a curves levels adjustment to warm the tones up and a "select sky" to eliminate the effects from the sky).
Further experimentation (and this may come as no surprise to many UHHers) the level of the effect has a hidden control... DPI. I lowered the original dpi from 300 to 72 and the results were astounding (not better). I then tried other DPI settings and each large change made the image look quite different. (I never changed the sliders inside Oil Paint). I really enjoyed the exercise. So my original post is on the first page here. This one is the 72DPI version so you can see what I'm babbling about. (oh- I didn't exclude the sky on this one)
Thanks for looking.

Not a fan of that technique at all, sorry.
No apology necessary. I'm not a fan of many, many aspects of life (and PS).

Have you been warned that playful pp is addictive? 
The effect works really well on several of the elements here, I think, the grasses and fort/playhouse in particular. Enjoy your journey and be sure to come back to share new results!

Now I know where the shaking comes from when I am separated from working with PS! There is no cure...
Thank you for the comments!
