I have a high-resolution scan of a watercolour painting that lost some of its subtlety in the process. A faint pinkish cast has crept into every area that should read as clean, nuanced white—both in the paper background and within the lighter passages of the subject itself. Your task is to bring the file back to an accurate, painterly look by correcting the colours that scanning and lighting have skewed. This is not about cranking up vibrancy or radically re-imagining the palette; it is about sensitive restoration. Key points to address • Remove the pink cast so whites feel natural, retaining the soft texture of the original paper. • Re-balance brightness, contrast and overall colour so the image looks true under neutral light. • Preserve the delicate transitions typical of watercolour; no harsh clipping or over-sharpening. You may use Photoshop, Lightroom, or any equivalent colour-correction workflow, as long as the brushwork and granulation remain untouched. Deliverable: one colour-corrected, full-resolution file (TIFF or layered PSD) ready for print and web. If you have handled art reproductions before, even better. Let me know your preferred process and turnaround time, and I’ll send over the scan right away.

Hi, This requires careful colour restoration rather than heavy retouching. I can remove the unwanted pink cast from the paper and lighter painted areas while preserving the original watercolour texture, granulation, brushwork, and soft tonal transitions. I’ll use controlled white balance, selective colour correction, and gentle tonal adjustments to restore natural whites without flattening the artwork or clipping highlights. The final image will remain painterly and suitable for both print and web. You can view relevant editing work here: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Humaumair12 I can deliver the corrected full resolution TIFF or layered PSD within 24 hours. Warm Regards, Humayou won't experience any unnecessary drama - just a high-quality result you'll be more than pleased with!

Hi You’re seeing a faint pink cast and washed nuance in your watercolour scan, and we can restore neutral whites without damaging the paper texture. I’ve spent the last 10 years solving exactly this type of art-reproduction colour restoration problem, making digital scans look true under neutral light. We will neutralize the pink using non-destructive colour correction (selective colour/curves by channel, targeted white-balance, and gentle luminance rebalancing), then fine-tune midtone transitions to preserve soft granulation. We’ll avoid harsh clipping, over-saturation, and sharpening, validating the result with histogram/threshold checks and print/web viewing profiles. Best regards, Zeeshan
