Outcomes of the new Free Paint 2023

[dinasset]

The filter has just been released, hence I removed the word "WIP" from the title

I open this new thread because I decided to rewrite from scratch this WIP.
I remember that a clever guy when I published the original FPS in 2020 commented saying:
"pity that you decided to set the requirement of many patterns, while you can try to create them inside the filter, with available functions".
Many years after I accepted the challenge, hence I have a new WIP which does not have any prerequisite for existing patterns, it is only based on Gimp+Gmic.
The goal is the same: provide to the users a tool to simulate paintings starting from a photo.
Not watercolour, but more oil or acrylic look, as it was already the FPS 2000.
After one week of work, I sent the WIP to my great co-teamer Issabella for testing and commenting.
At this stage she is ready to post her outcomes and comments.

I let Issabella showing some of the possible combinations of available options, I post here just one, using the default options except for the post_process, for which I chose "Aurora".
