Step one: Open the material in Photoshop.
Press the shortcut key Ctrl+J three times to copy the background layer into three layers, as shown below.
Figure 1
Step 2: Close the little eyes in front of the copy of Layer 1 and Copy 2 of Layer 1 to hide them, return to Layer 1 and make it in its current state (highlighted in the Layers palette).
Execute: Filter>Artistic Effect>Woodcut, the parameters are as shown below. This step can create edges in the material and create the outline of the painting, but some details will be lost.

At this time, change the layer mode of layer 1 to: brightness, and get the effect as shown below:

Step 3: Display a copy of layer 1 and put it in the current state. Execute: Filter>>Artistic Effect>>Dry Brush. The parameters are as shown below: This step is to simulate painting.
Figure 4
Change the layer mode of the copy of layer 1 to: Screen to get the effect as shown below:
Figure 5
Step 4: Display Copy 2 of Layer 1 and make it in the current state. Run: Filter>Noise>Middle value, with a radius of about 12, and then change the layer mode of Copy 2 of Layer 1 to: Soft Light to get The effect shown in the figure below: This can restore some of the lost details and make the effect more realistic.

It felt a little white, so I added a Brightness and Contrast adjustment layer to lower the brightness, and it was done.
A screenshot of the layers palette is as follows:

Introduction to the layer modes used in this example:
A. Brightness: Corresponds to the brightness in hue and saturation, that is, only the brightness and the lower layer are calculated.
B. Filter color: Black is a neutral color, which means that black is not calculated and does not affect the image below. It is like projecting two slides on two projectors onto a wall at the same time. The bright areas are brighter. .
C. Soft light: 50% gray is a neutral color that will enhance the contrast of the image. Soft Light mode has less impact on dim shadows and bright highlights than Overlay mode.
