ok... well anyways, to turn a digital photo into an artsy looking type of picture you...

A) Desaturate the layer in mind
B) duplicate that layer
C) Invert the new layer (the copy of the original one)
D) set the copy layer's blending mode to linear dodge
E) final step and very important one at that, add a gaussian blur

heres an example of my turning a picture of vivi from ff9 into something that looks more like it was drawn

yup i know this method ^^ but i only used it for making photos look like drawings.
