Watercolor Studio

The beauty of watercolor paintings lies in the combination of colors, the texture, and the brushing details. Relying on semi-transparent color blends, stains, and diffuse contours, the watercolor technique can create astonishing paintings.

With a powerful rendering engine and a generous collection of presets, Watercolor Studio makes it possible for you to turn any photo into a mesmerizing watercolor painting worth hanging on the wall.

What you will notice first about Watercolor Studio is how organized its interface is and how easy it is to create your watercolor painting. Once your photo is loaded, you must choose one of the available presets to render the result. The assortment of presets includes different paint styles fit for landscapes and similar scenes, as well as portraits. Once you click on a preset, the result is loaded by the rendering engine, and the output can be previewed.

You can use zooming to take a closer look at the effects in your canvas. For a quick comparison to the original, you just have to press and hold a button within the main window.

While the array of presets is more than you need to create beautiful pieces, Watercolor Studio also allows you to tamper with different settings to give your masterpiece the artistic character it needs. Expressive paintings can be obtained using the various variants of ink and color wash effects, the outline preset, and the liquefy layer.

For each layer in a preset, you can change the configuration. Watercolor Studio enables you to adjust the outline type and its detail level to modify the wetness of the edges. You can experiment with the color contrast and intensity, and change the liquid effect to control how much the color spreads.

Not only that Watercolor Studio comes with a rich set of presets, but it also allows you to enrich the collection with new ones to save your configurations for later use.

Thanks to Watercolor Studio, there is no need for artistic knowledge to create your watercolor painting. There are various settings to customize to obtain that artistic feeling you get when looking at a real painting. With a bit of care to the layers and their settings, you can obtain a print-ready masterpiece in just a few minutes. What's more, Watercolor Studio can also be deployed as a Lightroom plugin to obtain the same results in Adobe's editor.
