Below are a dozen fantastic Etsy artists who sell prints, original paintings, illustrations, and drawings.

1. DWITT

His work is visually stunning, with thick outlines and bold colors. He also has pieces available that are more reminiscent of watercolor paintings, though they're still much bolder than what many of us have come to think of as "watercolor".
