If you’ve ever wished your #watercolor paintings had a bit more punch or a bit more softness, but don’t want to change your style, there’s a simple answer - try #GOUACHE! Gouache is watercolor too, but it has more pigment and more opacity, so can do things its watery cousin can’t do - it’s a real #painting game-changer! I’ve saved 100s of my watercolor paintings using the tips I’m sharing with you in this video using Gouache. Gouache blends beautifully with transparent watercolor as we will find out today in this video and we’ll discuss whether this type of paint might just be what you’re looking for!
