Are we happy with this level of detail?
I’m on the final stretch of the watercolor collection ✨
And honestly, it turned out more complex than I expected
Keeping the texture and softness of watercolor at a large scale while making it look good in high resolution was a challenge
So I landed on what feels like the sweet spot:
5000x4000 px
300 dpi
Big enough to look beautiful in print and still crisp digitally
How does it feel?
Waiting for the drop? 😋
Thank you! 🤩
The color blending here is really something. Getting watercolor to hold up at high resolution without losing that soft, organic quality is genuinely hard to pull off. The warm tones flowing into the cool background feels so natural. Worth every bit of the complexity!
What a detailed artwork it is! Great Stacy!

Last week, you really motivated me to keep experimenting. This time, the goal was to apply the Fibonacci sequence to the typography and grid. Let me know what you think, and whether I might have gone a bit overboard with the texture xD
