Watercolors are a style of painting and expression that continues to gain immense popularity -- as can be seen within these watercolor features. Each of these stunning displays of artistic talent are individualized to the artist's taste and personality, while all following a similar visual theme.

Watercolor features can be easily distinguished and as such, they can leave a very strong, lasting impression on people.

Regardless of their varying purposes, these watercolor features are a taste for the eyes!

Implications - Watercolor techniques can be used by businesses within product packaging and promotions in order to display a company's creative side and stand apart from competitors.
