What Techniques are Used in Watercolor Painting?

Although everyone agrees that a watercolor painting from photo is an amazing way to preserve your most special memory or surprise your loved ones, it’s important to be aware of specific techniques that watercolor artists tend to use. 

Generally, three types of watercolor paints are used in the drawing process: tube, pan, and liquid. The main difference is that pans are a bit harder to dry while tubes and liquids don’t take that long. Most importantly, tube paints dissolve in water most quickly, and therefore, custom watercolor paintings created in tubes require the least time.

Regardless of the technique, watercolor allows painters to create the most diverse, colorful artwork and unleash the beauty of their imagination into a painting.

That means if you decide to turn photo into watercolor canvas, your unique painting will feature a light that shines through the paint on the white surface. How is this possible? In fact, watercolor is an art medium that offers the possibility to create colors that glow. It’s no wonder why your photos of watercolor paintings are going to become an unforgettable experience for your loved ones!

Pros and Cons of Custom Watercolor Paintings

Yes, it’s true that the watercolor medium is accompanied by lots of advantages, but do you know that sometimes it can also have some downsides? Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of custom watercolor paintings before you turn pictures into watercolor paintings using our service.

Pros

  • Transparency

     – Transparency is one of the most attractive features of custom watercolor paintings. In fact, watercolor materials naturally create the sensation of transparency.

  • Quick to dry 

    – Unlike other painting mediums, watercolor painting needs about 15 minutes to dry. Therefore, you won’t need to take it for long after your preferred artist finishes creating your personalized watercolor painting.

  • Vibrancy 

    – Watercolor allows painters to mix various colors and create vibrancy. Moreover, nowadays there are a lot of vibrant watercolor paints available that help professional artists turn a picture into a watercolor painting in a more decent way.

 

Cons

  • Non-permanent nature 

    – Watercolor paint isn’t a permanent material. Therefore, even when your custom watercolor paintings are already dried and finished, you need to take care of them to avoid damaging the surface.

  • Possibility of lightning 

    – Over time, colors in the custom watercolor paintings become less vivid. Especially if you leave your painting in the sun. However, high-quality paints and great care will ensure that your personalized painting will remain the same for a longer time. 

  • No room for mistakes – 

    Watercolor doesn’t offer a chance to improve mistakes using rubber or anything else. So, if a painter makes a mistake in the process of creating a custom watercolor painting from photo, the entire artwork will be ruined. That’s why you should take your time choosing a qualified artist.

Why Custom Watercolor Painting is a Precious Gift?

Who doesn’t want to celebrate special moments in their lives with a unique gift? But let’s be honest – sometimes finding the right gift for your loved one isn’t easy. 

Perhaps unsurprisingly, personalized watercolor paintings are among the most highly demanded presents for birthdays, anniversaries, or even family gatherings.

Whether you can actually show your feelings or not, at least your loved ones will know how much time and effort you spent to surprise them with a unique present!
