starting off with Heikala on insta https://www.instagram.com/heikala/
I love her work because most of her paintings have process videos (hint: you can watch these and learn more about the layering technique watercolor is famous for!) with the most AMAZING piano compositions 💓 (the pianist is always credited on her posts, Ryancampus.com )
her slice-of-fantasy illustrations make me swoon with feels

this less of a specific artist & more of a tragically unheard of digital watercolor program called Expresii (expresii.com)
it was originally developed for calligraphy, over the years it's been exanded to be just the BEST digital watercolor app/program there currently is on the market
cons are: it's Windows only, and it because it was made in Japanese first, the translated English menu might be confusing
the pros? endless!! AND IT'S GOSH DARN BEAUTIFUL!!!
