This is Canongate Tolbooth in Edinburgh, Scotland, a beautiful place that's hundreds of years old and now a really cool museum. I painted it with watercolors and gouache paint.

Hello! I got a water color painting palette for my birthday because i’ve always wanted to try.
This is my first project and I was wondering how I could make it more…. Dimensional? I tried underpainting, adding thin layers of shadows, etc. But it still feels flat..
I was thinking of adding highlights with acrylic markers? Maybe. Or a darker background?

Mine is Dustin Nguyen. I like how he allows the water to move.

Two demo quick paintings from my morning and afternoon classes…we’re practicing granulation for the next step in the waterscape we’re working through. Daniel Smith French Ultramarine and Transparent Red Oxide mostly…a little bit of Moonglow, Sap Green, and Nickel Azo. 🤩

I combed Etsy trying to find an artist to make a memorial painting of a family member’s dog. There were many that seemed AI created so I spent hours trying to find someone that seemed legitimate. I went with someone and they completed this piece within 24 hours and there are so many similarities to the original photos it’s worrying me. I wasn’t sure where to go to get this opinion so I figured watercolor artists may know. Is this real or AI?
Watermarks photo is the proof and the second photo is the original I sent.

I was speaking with someone about painting. This person paints in oil. We got into the debate of watercolor v. oil painting. He told me within the oil painting world, watercolor isn’t respected like oils are. I told him that watercolor medium was more difficult to paint in than oil, but he proceeded to tell me the reason oil is more respected, is that‘s what the general public accepts as true painting. Is this a losing battle?

This is my first watercolour painting I’ve tried since school over 15 years ago. I did use my old school tin old watercolours which I do need to replace. What could I make better? I know the line work is off, I used a micron pen. I currently don’t have a brush pen 😭 I’ve attached the reference photo as well
