Edge Work
This filter reduces an image to a high-contrast, grayscale version of itself. The detail in
this grayscale image can then be reduced and smoothed using various parameters to
create an image that resembles something hand-drawn. Depending on the amount of
smoothing you apply, many different effects are possible with this filter.
