The time has come to tell you all about Gouache. I’ve included everything you need to know in this blog post, including what’s the difference between gouache and watercolor, what paper to use with gouache, how do you pronounce gouache, acryla gouache vs. traditional gouache, and much much more!
My husband, illustrator Dave Malan, is probably best known for his pencil studies of faces done in a distinctive cross hatching style. His mechanical pencil portraits have a life to them unrivaled in the art world.
Let’s talk about Schmincke watercolors. They’re known for their richness and range of colors found in their lovely tubes. I’m excited to show you the modern florals I painted in this Watercolor Supply guide with my Blick haul from NYC!
I have been so excited to share this post with you! I haven’t painted with acrylics for a while, and was thrilled to create a tutorial with these gorgeous new DecoArt paints! They have a medium body viscosity perfect for beginners and more advanced artists too. The colors are really bright and pigmented which is one of the top things I look for in my paints. Because the colors are so clean and bright they mix really well into a huge range of colors, tints and shades.
Trying to find an opaque, fine tip pen has been a goal of mine for a very long time. I’m happy to say I finally found one that I love. It has the perfect combination of being easily portable in my pencil case, truly white and opaque, and a nice fine point.
Making time for new hobbies is always hard but I have a few tips for anyone wanting to pick up a paintbrush more often .
