Water Colours is the debut studio album by the American electronica band, Swimming With Dolphins.

Theo Bowyer of Cross Rhythms praised the single "Sleep To Dream" for its "hooky, synth riff" and compared it to Owl City.

He also complimented the writing flexibility on the track "Diplomat" that showcases Tofte's mature lyrical approach.

"[8] Scott Fryberger of Jesus Freak Hideout called "Holiday" the highlight of album, praising the track for its emotional and thoughtful lyrics.

"[10] A mixed review came from Kaj Roth of Melodic as he stated, "Tofte needs better songs because only a few lift up his debut album Water Colours."
