My wife is a big fan of an artist Jeff Koons. I'm not the most familiar with this but she says he paints in a style called hard edge.
Here is a link to the type of picture I'm referring to:

As you can see none of the colors are blended or faded. Its clear demarcation of different colors and shades. Does anyone have any ideas on a filter or a tutorial on how to take an already existing picture and turn it into a hard edge style painting. Thanks so much.
I cant find any examples with a google search.
All i find are these trashy looking expensive sculptures.
The image you linked to, looks like a colourful pattern applied to a party hat.
There must be something more to it....more examples please !
One way to change a normal image to something similar to what you've shown is:
- open your image
- duplicate the layer
- apply to this duplicate layer the filter "poster_indexed.scm" by Rob Antonishen (choose number of colours at your taste)
- set mode to hardlight
- play with opacity

Looking at those, lots of copy-paste from various sources will produce those 'hard' edges.
That looks like a collage to me.
I guess you could make pictures by using sprite like images and assembling them into a greater composition.

How do I apply the filter "
poster_indexed.scm" thanks so much.
You can download that script from here:
http://www.silent9.com/incoming/scripts/...ndexed.scm
Pop that in your Gimp profile C:\Users\your-name\.gimp-2.8\scripts Find it bottom of the Colors menu.
IMHO that is not the solution, what you need is not a script or plugin, it is a particular style.
There is already a posterize filter in Gimp. Colors -> Poserize. There are scripts and plugins that will cartoonize an image which might be better.
but, always a but,
What you need to start to start with is a suitable image.
Can you post some version of what you want.
Yea I think you're right. I'll have to ask my wife for example of what image she would like to convert and post it back in the group. Thanks for all the help.
