@Larue Thanks so much! Transferring watercolor into digital was tricky for me too. I finally found a system that I liked that is based on Adilson Faria's work here: https://www.youtube.com/@adilsonfarias He has a class you can take on hotmart that teaches you some great tricks. Also using watercolor texture overlays is very helpful, as is using the Kyle Watercolor brush pack from adobe. It isn't quite the same as true watercolor, but with a lot of fussing you can get a decent result.
But I agree, it is nice to be able to switch and have some variety in styles so I don't get bored. I just find it hard to pitch to illustration clients because I feel like my work is all over the heckin place. I keep reading about people who "find" their styles but for me it has always felt like I need to make a concrete decision- nothing feels like the holy grail and it is leaving me a little confused and frustrated. I'm reluctant to make tons of new work in case it isn't the thing Art Directors want to see. My dream would be to find something totally unique to me, but I've been doing this for over a decade now and nothing feels original in that way. It is a head scratcher, for sure!
