How to Create Watercolour Painting Effects with AI Using Photoshop’s Generative Fill

One of my most-watched videos every day on the Spoon Graphics KZread channel is my tutorial showing how to create a watercolor effect in Photoshop. That tutorial uses a combination of Photoshop filters to transform an image with a painterly appearance. Since the addition of the Generative Fill tool to Photoshop, there's a whole new way of creating a realistic painting effect with the help of AI.

    Very cool. Just tried it out. It does great with florals & landscapes. Tried a portrait and it did honestly better than I expected with a bit of finessing. It works well typing in “oil painting” for a different look or any other medium you want to apply to it. Such a cool technique. I’ll definitely be using this. ❤ Thanks!

    I must be missing a step - I've followed this 15 times and tried but it always does what your did at first - makes a generic "watercolor painting" and won't take the photo I'm trying to use and generate a watercolor from that. What do you do after getting out of quick mask and before you ask generative AI to make a watercolor painting? I have the layer selected, and as in yours, it is locked. I have tried it locked and unlocked - nothing works. Would love your help!

    The same thing happens to me as you! Specifically the step in which the image turns red. What command does the editor use?

    I used the technique two weeks ago and it worked perfectly fine. Tried it again today but it doesn't work anymore. Is there a possibility that Adobe has sneaky changed it :(((

    Cool, how did you figure the masking hack out for generative fill? Or is this how Adobe wants it to work?

    I've tried the Photoshop AI generative fill and have found it to be... to be kind, unimpressive. It give me results which seem like images which have been tossed into a food processor which has been punched a few times giving the result of things which look sorta like cars or people walking on sidewalks. A really bad Salvador Dali knock off painting at best. This is a way to use that bad AI fill to very effective creative effect. Well done, sir!

    This doesn't work as of today since I updated. Do you know of any other way to create watercolor paintings from my own photos? Thanks!!!

    Doesn't work for me either. Have followed multiple tutorials to the T, and it's not working. Perhaps they cottoned on and don't want people using the fill in this way.

    Your original tutorial is sooooo much better. Proves that AI is not going to take over the world (just yet)

    I've followed your steps exactly and I just get the same generated picture which is a large blue square whether I set the brightness to 0%,25%, or to 100%. I am using your picture which I download (1929 x 1280-72 DPI) and I have the latest version of Photoshop 2023 Beta. I just can't get it to work 1. Upload picture ( I used yours) 2. Select all 3. Turn on quick mask 4. Select the color picker 5. Set brightness to 25% then OK 6. Press Alt-Backspace to fill the mask 7. Ignore error msg for lack of pixels 8. Type in "watercolor painting" and hit generate 9. Result is the large blue square 10. I get the same result regardless of what level of brightness I set What am I doing wrong?
