Looks like you were still using oil painting technics in water color.
I agree they are challenging. I wish I could still be carefree like I was in 2nd and 3rd grade with watercolors. But like you I like oil and layering of colors and textures.

Its so hard to flip your brain. You do it without even thinking! I should switch mediums more often.

.jpg or .jpeg after the address it works.

It'll be a URL with the ending of jpeg or jpg.
