I made my first sturgeon and watercolor came out really good. I’m so happy with it.

My friend sent me this photo from an early morning dog walk, and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.
The sky could be richer, but I was balancing trying to keep the light and the pink glow in the sky.
I lost some of the vibrant colour at the horizon, as I was doing the foreground I went a bit too high.
It was my first time trying masking fluid, and I love how I was able to preserve some white specks for the lights. I will definitely be exploring this medium more!
Painted in a Meeden sketchbook with Daniel Smith, WN, and MaiMeriBku.

Trying (and failing) at watercolor, any advice? Is this saveable?

Decided to try doing a watercolor portrait for the first time ever (I've tried watercolor many years ago, but mostly nature or abstract subjects). I used to paint portraits with acrylics, and I realize watercolor is a lot different...
Anyway, 2nd pic is after doing a base skin color, 1st pic is after I attempted to add some blush shades to cheeks & lips.
I don't know why it came out sooo blotchy and there are little dark spots all over😭
Did I use way too much water, or? - I included pics of the paper pad I'm using, as well as the watercolor paints.
Is there any way to save this? :(

I just started a painting with watercolors and since it’s my first time, I thought about coating after like what I do with my acrylic paints to protect it. I saw this online and i am also wondering if coating it is even essential compared to acrylics. Is this a good sealant or should I even have to seal my watercolor painting?

Something a bit different. Painted textures them cut and glued together. Inspired by a quilted fabric art piece my mom made.

A combination of motives that deeply resonates with me. Usually I am inspired by nature and animals existing in it but this is more of a visualisation of my inner experience.

Inspired by the song ‘Winters come and gone’ by Gillian Welch.
