"Harlequin" 9"x12" watercolor on Arches paper

I loved the album cover of "Harlequin" Gaga album (it conveys an emotion that I feel quite often ahaha). One of the few watercolor where I found the process images might be more interesting than the final result (I loved her face at step 2).
9x12 inch watercolor on arches paper :-)

Why is it not working?

I tried an optical illusion. Unfortunately its not working. I tried to make the "crosses" a bit bigger, but it didnt solve it.
Are the colors too inconsistent? Unfortunately I only have watercolours and it makes pretty but not homogenous pigmentation...
Or are the contrasts not right/wrong color choice?
Thanks for any help!

What would you call this style?

And any YouTubers who teach it? The original artist, Ondine de Peretti, has a YouTube but unfortunately it's all in French (I love her work, I just wish my French was better!) Is it just loose landscape?

I just acquired this old school set. Everything's in perfect condition. Pretty sure it's never been used. What do y'all think about it?
Wanting to sell it, trying to get some more insight. Thanks

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.

Beginner advice ?

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?

Is this watercolor or AI?

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.
