Using DAUB brushes and paper to give painterly look to photos

[anolddog]

I am developing my skills in photographing and compositing still life and am inspired by the watercolours of Shirley Travena.  I would like to use DAUB brushes and paper within AF to apply a subtle watercolour style to my still life photos.  Has anyone tried this and if so do you have any advice that may help me shorten my experiments?  I have been thinking along the lines of pixel layers and blend modes and/or blend ranges to get the effect.  Ideas and thoughts would be gratefully received.

I've included some links below for you, the first being a tutorial from Paulo, the creator of the brushes - 

I hope this helps!

I really appreciate it, many thanks.

@anolddog   Welcome to the forums.  Since one of the links @Dan C has given you included much regarding difficulties making the JixiPix plugins work properly, I thought you should know that JixiPix resolved the issue and all of their apps have been updated to work perfectly with Affinity Photo.  Hope this helps in case you were feeling slightly queasy! 🤢
