Applying the Auto Van Gogh effect

You can use the Auto Van Gogh effect to create a Van Gogh–like rendition of an image. To apply Auto Van Gogh, you must first clone the image and then choose the Auto Van Gogh variant from the Artists brush category, which is included in the Painter 2015 brush library.

The Painter 2015 Brushes library is available for download from the Welcome book store (Help Welcome Store.)

To access the Painter 2015 Brushes library, first download it from the Welcome book store. Next, import it, and then in the Brush Selector, choose Painter 2015 Brushes from the Brush Library list box.

The Auto Van Gogh effect

The effect requires two passes. The first pass determines the angles of the brush dabs. The second pass applies the dabs. The image is then rendered in a set of directional brushstrokes.
