This is a detail with the contrast added to the shoe on the left. In the close up photo the texture of the paper and the paint treatment makes it more obvious that it is a painting. I have noticed that more distant photographs of the work which are uploaded to electronic media tend to look more photographic than the actual painting. Whilst I try to achieve a 'photographic' image in much of my watercolour work , I still want it to look like a painting which, when seen in actuality, it does.
