DESCRIPTION OF LESSONS

This course is comprised of five lessons. In lesson 1, I will share everything that I know about gouache. What is gouache and how does that differ from acrylic gouache? How is it alike or different from some of our favorite mediums like watercolor, acrylic and oil? We’ll talk surfaces, brushes, palettes, gotchas and personal recommendations and tips for using this fabulous medium. Lesson 2 is all about the supplies. I share insight on why I’m using each material over others, and guidance in choosing materials that will give you the best results. In lesson 3, we explore the strengths and differences of gouache vs. acrylic gouache, as well as practice techniques available to us, to prepare us for our gouache paintings.

    Excellent class. I learned so much about mixing and applying paints for skin colors. Painting the shadows of the portrait as layout was a game changer for me. I found that the instructions and demonstrations were exceptionally thorough. I love this class.
