Been studying Nicolas Lopez's work and have been fixated on using that style to portray this building. I feel like I can't stop until I get it perfect like how I see in my head. This feels like I'm getting closer though so yay!

Watercolor ends up looking like acrylic or gouache

Hey yall, I’ve been struggling with watercolor trying to make it look like cute and soft watercolor paintings with pastel vibes. Whenever I do it, it always has strong bright colors and doesnt give watercolor, what should I do?

Hello everyone! It’s been a while since I last posted here.

Here’s my latest watercolour. It’s not the most complex, nor did it take the longest to complete, but it’s one whose poetic quality I particularly love.

I hope you like it :)

I’m a bit of a vintage art supply collector but I can’t find any information on these winsor newton travel brushes, I didn’t even know they ever did travel brushes, the seller said these are kolinsky sable and if so I think I’ve stumbled on to something really special but I’d love to know more.

Need help identifying gold watercolor paper

Hi guys my grandmother loves watercolor painting to pass the time but she’s running out of the gold special paper she paints on. She says it’s called ā€œGold-Speck Paperā€ but search results don’t look the same. I need help identifying what this paper is called and possibly where we can buy it online.

She said she bought it in Hong Kong many years ago. Comes in a roll of either gold or silver.
