I tried tracing with the brushtool then using the smudge...it's kind of tedious because of the size of that particular photo, but that would be the way to do it. Just make sure your tracing is on the background(copy and paste photo to a new, white background file, go to layers, highlight the background, then begin tracing.) Once done, just delete the original photo layer.
You could also try Artistic/Palette knife, then go over to Edit/Fade Palette knife and reduce to about 50%, but it's not quite the same look as those pictures.
