Gouache painting is an art technique based on water-soluble paints. This technique can be used to create sketches, portrait miniatures and book illustrations. It is a quick drying and easy to use medium that is dilutable in water and can be retouched multiple times.
This technique is a great choice for artists who want to be able to make multiple adjustments and corrections in their drawing. It is also very durable and can be used for years to come without losing its color intensity or fading.
It is important to keep the painting protected from the sun and UV rays. To do this, frame your painting with plexiglass that has UV filtering, which will help to protect the piece from damage from direct sunlight.
There are many different ways to paint with gouache, but it is important to know how the material works before you begin. Some of the most common gouache techniques include:
Gouache and watercolor work together to create realistic effects.
This is because the two mediums are able to be layered, which creates structure, depth, and color. This is why you will often see painters utilizing both mediums in their paintings. For example, landscape and nature artist Albrecht Durer created a hyper-realistic painting called Wing of a Blue Roller with both watercolor and gouache.
