Old classroom: One-to-three challenge

I recently took a picture of a recreated old classroom at the Deschutes Historical Museum in Bend, Oregon.

I used Corel PaintShopPro 2021 for different photo processing effects on this picture of the classroom. In the original image I increased the contrast and fill light and cropped the edges. Use the slider to view each effect compared to the original.

The first picture of the classroom shows a Time Machine effect. For this image processing I went to Effects>Photo Effects>Time Machine>Albumen settings. This effect makes the picture look much older. I think I liked this effect the best for this photograph.

The second picture of shows an Art Media effect. For this image processing I went to Effects>Art Media Effects>Pencil>Default settings. This effect shows dark outline colors with muted color in other parts of the photo. I liked how the touch of color gave this picture more of a presence.

The last picture shows an Artistic effect. For this image processing I went to Effects>Artistic Effects>Topography>Blocks Detailed settings. This effect makes the picture seem almost three dimensional. I associate contours with landscapes, but this effect gives every day objects topographical lines.
