Igor, I don't have PS and I don't do computational editing (if such a thing
exists).

In fact, as you can see easily, it was shot against the light and thus came
out with very dark darks and very bright brights. Originally, I edited it a
bit and thought that was it. Then, I realized, I wanted to see more of the
very dark darks, so I brightened them up a bit. Of course, m43 has small
sensor that is noisier than its bigger and more modern siblings. But
somehow I don't care too much about it. So, I kept on editing, trying to
brighten up the darks and eventually I arrived at this idea - make it look
as if it was not a photograph, but rather a pencil drawing - hence the
title.

Nowadays, my workflow is like this:
* Import to LightRoom and perform basic keywording/sorting and basic
editing, such as straightening up or cropping.
* Whatever I like, I would then edit in ColorEfex Pro from Nik plugins
collection. I have that favorite recipe of mine that basically includes all
the filters that I tend to use. Then I would mix and match to taste.
Admittedly, recently I am finding it great fun playing with film simulation
presets.
* Sometimes, I would edit in ColorEfex Pro specifically with the idea in
mind to continue towards b/w conversion. Then, sometimes the colors and
contrast becomes rather unnatural. Thus, I'd take the edited file and feed
it directly to SilverEfex Pro, where I would edit it some more, again
completely to taste. There, I also like film simulation presets and I would
also play with contrast, details, etc.
* Back in LightRoom I might edit it a bit more, perhaps apply a bit of
Noise Reduction if my editing is more heavy in that department.
* And finally export and upload.

That's a great image!

I am just curious if it was just finding the right color mapping/mixing,
or you also did something like "find the edge" filter in PS,
which is essentially close to what is mathematically taking the 1st 
derivative of the multi-dimensional function (or 3-D surface in 
some colors), and overlaying it with the original image.
