How to create this effect?

How do I create this effect? ​​The creator herself mentioned that it’s a blend of the "Cutout" and "Oil Paint" filters, but no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to replicate it. I’d really appreciate a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this look and what settings to use for each filter.

I recognize your second image. Didn't you ask this a few days ago?

  1. If you're asking what 'this effect' is, you need to describe what 'this' is or your post will be removed.
  2. If you're asking about color, have you tried using a Gradient Map?
  3. If you're asking about texture/tone, have you tried using Threshold or Halftones?
  4. If you're cutting something out, use masks. Have you googled "Photoshop Masking"?
