Emma is my girl. Teaching is an art and she has it. First gouache tutorial I totally understand.

I’m so glad I found this video before trying my gouache paints that I’ve been keeping for a while. Full of very useful tips, thank you Emma!

Never tried gouache before although I have used China white with watercolor, so, I ordered a bunch and they are due to arrive tomorrow....so excited to try something new!

Simple and to the point of answering the questions I had. Thank you for sharing your perspective .

Oops, never used them so these new gouache tutorials are great. Please do more, I'd love to get something out of them. Like you, I'm a watercolourist at heart. Very good explanation of the different whites, I've always wondered what the differences between them meant. Thank you Emma, you're a Star. 🤗🎨💗

I love using gauche. Thank you for your lessons. It’s been at least teen years since I’ve painted. These lessons are a good reminder for me.

U explained it so well. I want to try this medium out. I cant wait for the day you start acrylics and explain it to us dummies 🙈

I have been a calligrapher for over 40 years and used gouache in place of ink. You should try writing with it with a broad nib.

I recently purchased the Winsor & Newton Designer Gouache. Anxious to learn more about it.

Emma, I really enjoyed your new pieces using gouache! Beautiful, thoughtful, clever. It truly is a different medium, but like you, for me, I prefer the "alive" nature of fresh watercolor & its transparency. Loved the floral pieces you created in this video. Well done! Many thanks & continued health. Frances Turano Denver, CO USA

This was awesome! Thanks so much . I just got a small set of gouache paints. Watercolor, though, is my favorite too

What a great tutorial. I‘ve learned so much. Thank you, Emma!

It's interesting that you loved it enough to go out and bought a lot of colors. For me, I have a lot of water colors but for gouache and acrylic I just have a white one and a black one.

Really enjoyed that ( I’m supposed to be working lol). I have some gouache and really like them even though no idea what I’m doing. This was informative, thank you 😊

Great video. I believe using gouache along with water colors is really handy when you want an opaque lighter color or darker color on top of the translucent watercolor. They are really fun to do splatter with also.

Thanks for sharing, I agree it’s harder to learn this medium

Lots of great information. The brush stroke tips helped me a lot.

I was considering trying gouache, but I think I will stick with watercolour. I love your honest opinions but I agree watercolour is my true love❤

Thank you, very much enjoy learning and painting along with you.

This was super helpful, your tips are great! Thank you for sharing! ❤

Thank you so much! Please show more artwork with gouache, love it!

Great job! Looks so much easier than watercolor painting. Does not have a mind of its own!

Wonderful, Emma. I learned so much. Thank you! 🙏

Thank you Emma pretty flower arrangement. I can't wait till you do another Bob Ross painting in watercolor. Lol Be safe 😊😷🧤😎🌴 FL.

I use Canson for every paint I use - acrylic, watercolors (paints and pencils), and now gouache paints. I recently bought a cheap set of gouache paints from Michael's, and I swatched the paints to make sure of their opacity.

Thanks for that informative intro to gouache, I have wondered about it and love the effects you got on those flowers but I can see I would waste paint....one of the reasons I do like watercolors is how you can reactivate and use what is left.....acrylics I like too, but again the clean up and waste is hard to take.

well done- thanks for sharing. WIll be trying goauche for sure

Good information. Never used gouache before accept white to touch up watercolor highlights. I want to give it a try now. I also heard you can use colored pencils and pastels over gouache when it’s dry with great results. I’m gonna have to give it a try! Thanks for a very informative video!

Emma, such a great tutorial! I just ordered some gouache so I’m anxious to try.

Love that you tried it! And thank you so much for this video..answered a lot of questions for me in regards to painting with gouache!

If you wet your colors about an hour before they’ll be good as new I do that plus I store mine in a medicine organizer and spray my paints with a little water everyday 4 months later their still like fresh outta the tube and if I miss a day or 2 forgetting to spray I just spray them when I remember and their still good to go the medicine organizer keeps the moisture sealed in good, I also see people use little round containers with lids and I’m sure those work great too I just like to carry my paint around so it’s nice to have them all in one place...

I mixed a dollop of natural honey to my gouache and let it dry in my palette. To activate it I add water and mix it up and let it sit for about 1 minute. It becomes thick and creamy almost like acrylic paint coverage and it glide's smoothly

I like gouache! Thanks for the tutorial!

Please make more gouache videos! 🌸🌸

Yah I have the same problem....I have every copic marker. Good video I learned something new

This was excellent! I am 73 and have never painted in my like till 2 weeks ago and tried watercolor....that was rough haha. I know I know practice practice! Yesterday I saw a vid by by Ellen Trent Crimini called 'Gouache 101'. I got so excited and thought yes! So today I went to Michaels and got a little starter set so I'm going to set the watercolors aside for a bit (and also in the meantime try watercolor pencils also with a water brush). I've been watching truckloads of vids just learning stuff. A Question: How well and often does one rinse out brushes in between colors? You said you were going to have to scrub your palette when done and so does that mean it's harder to get the brush cleared of paint during a session? I thank you so much and I love your channel. Tfs

Thank you.

Very helpful, I loved it.

Very helpful! Thanks!

So pretty!

Use pallet paper for your gouache then throw it away.

Help! I just tried gouache this am (arteza) for the first time, trying to do the yellow background one with the purple flower. Idk what I am doing wrong but I am using 140lb fabriano cold press and there's alot lf drag and coverage appears off. Do i just need to use more paint or layer up the background?

Pretty, but I guess I don’t get the point in using Gouache.Why not just use acrylics? Thank you for sharing about it and your paintings did turn out vibrant and pretty.

Thank you. Do you need to use a fixitive after?

I have some gouache paints & never used th

How do you keep your watercolor in the pans? I have the same palette and watercolors keep falling out of the pans lol

Doesn't the gouache gunk up your watercolor brushes? Thanks.

Can you use the same brushes for watercolor, gouache and acrylic?

What's Chinese white? 😆 that's what came in my paints. Figures it wouldn't be any of those. 😉
