I pulled an all-nighter for this watercolor painting (couldn't sleep due to anxiety, painting relaxes me)

I love your work! The watercolors you post here on Lemmy are worthy of an art gallery or illustrations in a children's book, really anywhere!! They need to be published in some form. Please tell me you are getting recognized for your work!

Oh, wow, thank you! I have plans for a book, but so far, not much recognition exists. I started painting you see when the enshitiffication of instagram started, and so I didn't go far with normal social media. I had more luck at the federated Pixelfed!

The first one I saw which is still my favorite is the collage-type one that you posted a few weeks back where you cut and pasted each individual piece of the picture together. That is a super unique looking style that I feel like I haven't really seen before. Really beautiful piece, I just love it!

Oh, thank you so much! I might do some more watercolor collages again in the future. I'm currently moving back to Europe (that's why I have anxiety with our move), and all my gear and supplies are all packed. I've kept out with me only a palette of 24 watercolors, a small sketchbook, 2 brushes, a posca pen, and a few colored pencils.

Reminds me of Kiki's Delivery Service, very comfy. I hope it helped.
