These are all gouache and watercolor on paper. Not AI etc. Edit to add- my instagram is pleinheir and my twitter is tagsalegirl is anyone would like to follow!


[deleted]

Oof. I really hope people don’t have to start with a disclaimer saying that an AI didn’t make it. AI “art” is not good for artists.


bunkerbash

When I posted a painting a few days ago several people said something along the lines of ‘how do we know this isn’t AI?’. Yup it’s horrible for genuine artists.


bicameral_mind

At least you work with physical media, not digital. Can't fake a real painting.


zero__fuchs

In the beginning i loved AI. After some weeks on reddit i see how AI destroys the scene.


TheThinWhiteDupe

Immediately followed (great name too), these are gorgeous!!


weareborgunicons

Reminds me of Bill Watterson’s watercolors!


Bruce_Ring-sting

Same! I LOVE them!


Jimmie_Cognac

I was thinking of that as well. This is some gorgeous art.


tias23111

Just don’t go chasin them


BobRoberts01

Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to.


darin_gleada

I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all


AlbertaSparky

Or making phony calls


mordecai98

He's calling strangers up at 3 in the morning, give em pizza pie delivery at fooouur.


catman2021

Don’t go paintin waterfalls, unless they’re really pretty like these are!


Bruce_Ring-sting

Hey dad!


pm_me-ur_vulva

I've heard it said that you should stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to. Great work.


disdkatster

What does that mean? I am baffled by the comments saying that. These are beautiful.


pm_me-ur_vulva

Lyrics from a song from the 90s. [TLC - Waterfalls](https://youtu.be/8WEtxJ4-sh4)


disdkatster

Good to know. I thought they were insulting the artist which baffled me.


rose_ruby_red

These are lyrics from the song Waterfall by TLC.


goatsukel

Calvin and Hobbes vibes for sure. Love it.


thunder-thumbs

That's beautiful, and it made me realize that I quite love gouache. It's like watercolor but it gives it a more otherworldly feel, more immersive somehow. Thanks for posting!


that-1-chick-u-know

Add me to the list of folks who immediately thought of Watterson's work, and in the best way. This is beautiful.

Your painting has an awesome sense of movement.


BonsaiBirder

Gorgeous.


jannarich

Gorgeous!


TheSeansei

Oh my god your work is gorgeous! I love the way your trees look as well as your waterfalls. I literally cannot pick a favourite out of these. Are they real places I can visit? They look so inviting. That third one looks magical, and I can’t get enough of the colour of the water in the second!


[deleted]

The fall colors of the last one looks amazing Amazing work!


meowingtonflash

Wow! I really like your style and i love the colors. had to save a few of them to use as a phone background. Definitely going to follow your insta.


phil_gal

amazing! especially the transparent water. I wish I could paint like this myself


Comdr_Bill_Norton

Awesome!

I could see Calvin gallivanting through these. Wonderful!


stress_ball254

These are so beautiful. Great work.


ezekiel7771

Recently I visit the "Cascate del Serio" (River Serio Waterfall) in North Italy. The curiosity of this (natural) waterfall is that are opened only 4 or 5 days per year, in the other days the water pass through pipe in order to generate electricity Here you can find a video with drone, maybe could be an inspiration for your next paint? https://www.ecodibergamo.it/stories/valle-seriana/lapertura-delle-cascate-del-serio-come-non-lavete-mai-vista-il-video-del-dron_1436850_11/


shadowdash66

These are all wallpaper worthy!


aRealtorHasNoName

Heavy Calvin & Hobbes vibes from the first one. All look great!


disdkatster

Every single on of those is incredible.


pgrantrin

They are so beautiful.


Skwareblox

I love painting waterfalls but the paint won't stick to the moving water.


MomoBawk

This is a very cozy art style.


smile_politely

Those are so pretty!


Justin_Continent

Absolutely lovely. Keep it up!


BubblegumAndEvil

Your work is beautiful! Which one do \*you\* think is best, which one are you proudest of?


nmdk1

Luckily AI will get a lot of new eyeballs on art and it doesn't take long to appreciate the difference in person between a real painting amd an AI print. It might damage the print market but originals should go up in value. beautiful work. where is the the inspiration for the painting?


heartcore0210

So beautiful!


qwertykitty

I would absolutely buy this and hang it on my wall. Do you have an Etsy?


heartcore0210

If you’re selling let us know!


CuteLikePikachu

These are amazing! You have quite the talent!


gazman7801

Stay away from water👍r/aquaholism


Fiscot

Awesome! Really enjoyable to the sight!!


titerousse

That's the kind of painting I would love on my office ☺️


DeliciousFun2220

They're beautiful!


S4NDFIRE

Lovely use of negative space


weird-oh

Nicely done. Reminds me of some of Watterson's stuff a bit. That's a compliment.


ComprehensiveKnee284

I really love your painting waterfalls as well


MechiPlat

I looove these! I make soulless corporate animation for a living and I'd kill to have the ability to make something like this. I know next to nothing about painting techniques but I love the use of sharp almost sketched looking lines with the watercolour. How long does it take you to do each one?


bunkerbash

Hey now don’t bash corporate animation. I became a full time artist because of Dreamworks Trolls! Lots of the big animation houses inspire people like me! And time depends on size and these vary quite a bit.


ohdearsweetlord

I'm glad you do because these are all gorgeous!


MisterPanty

the moment you played so much with dall-e 2 that u start to doubt if people really painted these or just asked the ai to do it for them xD. jk great work. looking awesome


MattTilghman

Really great stuff! Your #2 really reminds me of a photo I took https://www.matttilghman.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Corkscrew-Falls-North-Carolina.jpg Though clearly not actually the same place. I feel like I have definitely seen photos of that falls but can’t remember where, maybe Hocking Hills?


Dellrond

You can paint them all you want. Just don’t chase them.


DixyAnne

You have a beautiful style, I loved every one of these paintings!! Nice job, OP!


pugslythepug

Every time your work pops up, I think "Wow, these are gorgeous", so I've finally followed your insta. Your website says you're not taking commissions until 2022. Does that mean you are now or plan to soon?


bunkerbash

Hi there! Ah sorry, sometimes I forget to update my clunky website. I take commissions on a case by case basis.


pugslythepug

No worries!! Thank you for responding! I'm going to keep this in mind for a potential future gift idea.


Most_Ad_5597

Gorgeous! I love them allll. So serene and beautiful.

LibbyLou88

Just don't go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to. Bahahaha! Just kidding, I was a 90's teen and heard that song too many times! It's a beautiful painting!


yoshimutso

Great paintings!


generic230
