oh I wish I was good at art lol this video was so tasty to watch

Supples you need: Water, Brushes, Paper, Paint Me: Well I have water

Your voice is everything. To American ears it sounds like a cool icy glass of organic lemonade on a balmy summer evening.

Gouache sounds like magic paint.

I'm definitely more open minded on using gouache and less scared to try it. Thanks for this! :D

Well, if I discover that I can actually paint then I might have to try this out. It seems like it combines a lot of the good points of acrylics and watercolors.

For almost 6 years we're learning how to paint with gouache at school in simple art lessons we took and I couldn't really paint gouache, I didn't even understand what it is. Now with only 10 minutes video I gained much more information about gouache than 6 years of classes, thank you so much Minnie! ♥ :)

another great thing you can do with gouache is load some empty paint markers or fineliners with it.. for those little white detailed hilights and various line work...

This answered a lot of my questions about how to get the right ratio of water to pigment.

"Keep creating beautiful things, and keep being Beautiful things."

I just discovered gouache and I can't believe how many things you can do with it. It's like a badass version of watercolor - I LOVE it :D

I just got my first ever set of gouache today and I'm quite scared of trying out a new medium but watching your vid has made me less scared and more confident in trying out something new. This really helped me a lot! Still a super newbie at painting that's why I'm intimidated by it, but after hearing your tips techniques, I feel more at ease in trying it out. Thank you so much! Your work is beautiful 💕

i really love the name youve given us, "you lot".

"the cheaper ones like Reeve's" CHEAPER. Omg, I'm so poor.

That sponsorship mention was very smooth

Your voice is very pleasant! I hope it doesn't sound weird. XD And thank God, finally someone told me why my watercolour paper's textured when I want it to be smooth. 😅

I´ve just got some Reeves Gouache so I could test them. Didn´t do a piece yet with them, but I love the feeling so much, that I can´t wait to use them. This video was realy usefull, so thank you!

“Hot press” “cold press” *sounds more like coffee than paint skdksk I’m confusion*

Can you please do a tutorial on blocking in colors for portrait? I'm just getting back into painting after a 8yr hiatus, decided to try my hand at gouache

your nails are so pretty omg ;-;

I love your artwork so much, it's inspired me to start painting again thanks to all these tips and tricks it makes it so much easier! Please post more X

Great tutorial for this beginner! I was especially happy to see you just painted without a sketch. I’m not good at realistic drawing so often felt discouraged to try gouache, but love your style and will give it a try. Thank you!

I love Gouache, it's so versatile and vibrant. You can water it down to resemble the translucency of watercolour, or thicken up to bring it to an Acrylic opacity. It goes really far. Even though I spend more when buying my Gouache, I know the tube is packed with pigment and so, needs only a little to bring out the beauty in the paint. I actually enjoy using Gouache more than watercolour. Activating it to repair or to lift it a little is great. However, once completed, fix it and frame it. Or any damp or spillage on to your painting can be truely disastrous as the paint activates so quickly and spoils your painting.

Great painting at 1:27. Would love to see a tutorial on this landscape.

I bought some gouache yesterday. I have never really done any illustration myself before. Only at school and maybe every two years I try to draw Disney characters. But I always wanted to be able to express my dreams and ideas in drawings. So I searched for a gouache tutorial and I repainted this bear following your instructions. It turned out pretty well (my brushes are shit though, need some good ones haha) and I will put the bear up on my wall to see as my first painting in a long journey towards illustrating.

thank you for this!! Perfect beginner vid for me to learn tips and techniques. I also love the bear painting towards the end he/she is quite adorable!!

It's 2022 and I still come back to your educational, majestic vids :>

I personally use Royal Talens religiously. I was gifted 15 year old tubes of it, that a family member didn't want anymore a few years ago, and they were still amazing. Since then I've gotten almost every single tube they offer,and I can't recommend them enough!

i had no idea this type of paint existed before i found your channel, i'm more of a watercolor person but i also love acrylic and this seems like a mix of both. this video was super helpful!

Totally going to try gouache! You've freed me from my doubts, thank you!

I think I found my new favorite medium :D

So glad I found your channel. I’ve been struggling with Gouache, blending has been a nightmare and I think I know why now since you explained not to blend/wash with water but to do paint on paint. I’ve also tried adding more white and that was not ideal

Great video.Love your gentle English syle.what beautiful hands and nails you have!

I know people have already said it, but your HANDS!!!! They are so lovely!

Great! But let me add: unlike watercolor where water is used to "lighten" colors, use white so as not to weaken the paint. And never ever use any brushes used for opaques with your transparent watercolor. keep guauce far far away from watercolors.

Thanks for the introduction to gouache, really helpful. Your work is beautiful.

After this video, I'm definitely going to try gouache! This video was very clear to understand and very inspiring too. thank you!! 😄

I decided I want to try painting for the first time so I went on amazon and bought the Reeves paints, watercolor paint book, and brushes you recommended in the description! The paints are coming tomorrow and I can't wait to practice this medium of art! You really inspire me and I appreciate all of your videos, from filling sketchbooks to listing supplies you used to giving your advice and sharing your inspirations and methods! You are an incredibly wonderful person! Thank you so much!

Having never used gouache and have been wondering a lot about it, I'm now saving to buy my first lot so I can create something colourful. Being disabled from 11yrs of battling with cancer then radiation poisoning from my treatment I've been left in a wheelchair with a number of health problems which means I'm unable to work so funding my art is something I find difficult. However I'm definitely going to try this to hopefully make some beautiful work to be able to sell. Thx for the tips in this video it's really helped me out and I hope when my art studio in my garden has been built I'll be able to make video's of me creating so companies might send me out products to try which would be s huge help for sure! Keep up your great work! 😊

Outstanding Minnie! Super demonstration, lots of info, honest review and really appreciate all your help. You need to be a hand model!

your hands is so pretty

So handy! Thank you so much! Think I’m going to try out gouache for the first time on my channel! - your voice is so satisfying to listen too 😂 I could listen to you all night hehehehe

Cheers mate I’m a interior design student and you helped me a lot

Very informative. I'm a digital artist looking to dip a toe in the world of physical art, this was very helpful, thank you!

Thanks for making this wonderful & informational video. I am just getting started with gouache for the first time but coming from a watercolor background. I appreciate you breaking down the various techniques and steps for using this medium.

Thank you for the tutorial! I have used gouache only a minimal amount of times and its been an odd feeling versus my home medium watercolor. I'm taking a gander at gouache for an upcoming project in school to experiment!

i have been watching your videos for the past two days and i just have to say thank you for inspiring me and so many others to practice and make art. i always had a problem of wanting to make art but not knowing what, but you are so helpful! i'm defintely heading to an art store today.

Very helpful. I've been wondering about adding a set of gouache to my kit. I've been using watercolour and only have used white gouache. I'll check out your videos on Strathmore too. Thanks.

Another excellent video. Now I know so much more about gouache and blending!! I'm addicted to your videos. I just want to go home and create and make a mess! :)

i got a gouache set for christmas and this helped so much!

you make it look so easy! I'd love to get my hands on some gouache

Thank you very much! I've been looking for a small tip and trick video, and yours helped me. I just got goache not to long ago and had some questions. Thanks again!

i'm really thankful that you uploaded this video. I just bought a set of primary colours of gouache, and im a little bit lost.. but as i paint with watercolour i have all the materials!

This was the most helpful video I've seen on Gouache, thank you!

You sound like Sophie from Howls Moving Castle, that's a compliment!

Very nice tutorial, and painting. Thanks.

nicely done video for somebody who hasn't used gouache in ages this was a big help cheers

thank you so much! i havent painted in 13yrs and your video brought back all my memories. thank you again. you explain it wonderfully and easily. :)

this video was very informative! im a beginner with gouache and i wasnt sure how to use it. i love your art style!

This is unrelated to the video (which I loved and was very helpful, by the way!) but your fingers are so long and elegant! As a dancer I notice these things 😂

You should check out Holbein watercolors

The jelly paint set I got works really well

Very useful and concise - I will be experimenting Thank you

Well i know what set im buying. You got alllll those colors from one set. Im,impressed

Excellent video! I've been trying to start painting with gouache and you explained everything very well. I also loved the bear.

Arteza’s Gouache is really nice and it’s affordable! Just bought the 24 set, planning to order he 48 set! ARTEZA is the way to go! Have then send u a set so up can review them for ur audience!

I'm about to get my first gouache palette... Thank you for the tips

I love your chill and laid back vibe, it helps me to relax into the learning process and tame my inner critic. Thank you Minnie :)

Your bear painting at the end looks so incredible! nice job and thank you for an informative video

Loved this video! The quality of your videos has improved so much over the past few months and I hope we'll get to see more and more artwork from you as soon as possible :)

Ah this was amazing! I've been trying to decide whether to splurge on Gouache or not, this was super helpful! xx

Your voice is so soothing!

What a lovely calm voice you have! So much more pleasant then some of the American channels that screech at you!

Jeez the bear is so cute! Also as always such a great video. Lots of info without rambling about. Love it!

Back at it again with the Grade A videos, your videos make want to try my hand at painting and drawing more.

just gone back to this vid as i ordered my first set of gouache paints today! so excited to try them out. thank you for the tips minnie i love your art x

Brilliant! I have a gouache set that I've been using but I haven't really gotten the hang of it yet. This taught me a lot of tips I'll remember for next time. :D

This was exactly the video i needed after searching all over youtube! Thank you so much🌸

fantastic tips and advice, thank you for sharing I look forward to trying them out

If it can be reactivated, even in the paper. How do you finish off the painting? Should you seal it with something??

Thank you so much! This is so helpful. I just started using gouache as my main medium and I love it!

Great video, very useful to see you use different techniques and explain as you go along. Thank you!

Oooh, Talens, we had to get them in primary and highschool over here in Belgium. When I tried art school we had to get Windsor and Newton though.

I'm glad I found your channel. I watched the other video of yours talking about your art journey and how you started out. I've always been using colored pencils but a lot of times I feel like it takes a longggg time to finish a piece on a weekend, in addition to working full time :( I tried watercolor but didn't work out well, then beat myself up for spending a bit money on a few supplies. (At least I gave it away to my sister so she can put good use to it). So now I've read a lot about gouache and am like well, is it worth it 🤦😞 I guess you never know until you try

I am heading to the art store and really wanted to try gouache or just tubed watercolor in general. But I didn't know where to start or what to get. And I've watched so many of your videos but I hadn't seen this info video? But I refreshed your home page and there it was! I feel so blessed aha

I usually use gouache to highlight my water colour paintings, but will now give it a go on the total picture, enjoyed video cheers.

Thanks for this video.... Pretty easy to understand...

Great video. I learned a great deal in less than ten minutes. Special thanks to Google for simply handing your video to me after I typed 'gouache'. Your bear is awesome.

I actually wanted to buy acrylic paint since I spent all my colors, but I accidentally bought gouache. Now I gotta learn how to paint with gouache. The video is great. Thanks♡

Thank you for the information and tips. Painting with gouache sound interesting. I should try it.

This is exactly the information I needed, thanks!

Card makers can also use Gouache instead of buying ink pads. I did a video on it recently using the Arteza set.

Thanks for the excellent introduction! By the way: You have probably the most beautiful hands I've seen so far :)

Yes!! This was very helpful. You inspired me to try to incorporate gouache in my style of art and I absolutely love it. I just more colors

Lovely voice, calming and pleasant video that effectively taught me what I wanted to know. Thanks for your work and contribution on this subject!

Beautiful work

What an amazing video. I am just beginning to experiment with this medium. I also love mixed media applications.

This video covers nearly everything, I love the way you explained it! I just got a gouache set today, with 12 tubes. It's from the brand pebeo. It's the next priciest one in my favorite craft store, the priciest one is reeves. I was looking for winston & newton but I don't think they sell it in my country.

This was very helpful - thank you.

Lovely hands, beautifully done video.
