What do you want to learn about gouache next? I’m thinking of doing a video exploring real thick, chunky gouache next, what do you think?

Also dry-brushing? I love seeing dry brush strokes on paintings but I never know how/when to do it =)

Oh absolutely! Great idea

I'm just starting to work with gouache and coming from watercolor, Graphitint and Inktense. Thick and chunky will be great new ground!

I have questions! 1) what book is that? 2) what brushes do you recommend for newbies? 3) is your course going to explain consistency for very newbies? What about brands of paint, brushes, paper, sketchbooks?

Blending and layering are my biggest issues with gouache...
@kevinhernandez75156 ай бұрын
That consistency in gouache is specially usefull in the first layers to create a good background. Thanks for sharing this technique

I’ve never paid much attention to my gouache transparency and just painted it opaquely, so good to see the transparency technique you can get and the bead technique! Thank you!

Even oils could be done daily..easily within 30 min. Oils can be kept stay wet if you keep your palette in freezer, bushes stay wet by just keeping them brush dip after finishing painting. No need to clean daily.just open your palette box ...take brushes and paint with no solvents just use walnut oil as medium..so set up and pack up is just 1 minute..try and see..I put few drops of clove oil in each oil well of the palette too. I used to paint with gouache daily...now switched to oils after my experiment

Yeah, they are great!! I use the clove oil trick too and it does wonders. I usually spend a few months diving into a medium and swap out for another when the fancy hits. I haven’t tried to use a freezer yet, but I also don’t have access to a freezer in my studio - I imagine they might make little ones I can put in there

Thank you for sharing! Very useful as having a smooth gradient is something I have struggled with in gouache!
@JustinDonaldsonArt6 ай бұрын
Yeah, it’s really difficult in gouache
@PenImp6 ай бұрын
You did a tutorial I think it was last year in one of the imaginefx magazines and I often use that as a guide! Could this technique work on a larger scale? For a gradient on the background? @@JustinDonaldsonArt

Ok you’re my new favourite! I thought I wanted to do watercolour but have recently changed to gouache. Wish I hadn’t bought 75 tubes of watercolour! How do I find your course?
@JustinDonaldsonArt2 ай бұрын

great stuff sir! I would suggest just as a side note maybe to turn the music down a wee bit. Otherwise great stuff

Just found you Justin. Interesting technique for gouache! Although, can we not just look at gouache as opaque watercolour? Do you ever use acrylic gouache? I can't help but ask you, are you a fellow Aussie? Merry Christmas! x Nell.
@JustinDonaldsonArt8 ай бұрын
Hey! I am Australian! But I’ve been living in the us for about 12 years so the accent is a little rough 😅 yeah I like to look at watercolour and gouache as two sides of the same thing - though even in the comments here you’ll see people trying to split them up even more. So it’s kinda my goal to show where the medium can be pushed and boundaries lost 🤩 I don’t often use acrylic gouache, but not because i don’t like it, I just haven’t put time into it
@tasticola8 ай бұрын
@@JustinDonaldsonArt thanks Justin! I think, in my mind anyway, that not trying to separate wc and gouache so much is helpful. It's not that scary! Often white watercolours are very opaque... anyway I guess it's a personal view. I really like acrylic gouache. It's very recent as I'm not a huge fan of acrylics, although Poscas are fine! I quite enjoy the ag and like the "permanence" of it I guess. The matte finish also appeals. Anyway, I'm rambling lol. Your aussie accent is still there! Thanks again! x Nell.

This is primarily a watercolour technique as you are blending wet washes. A Gouache technique would be one that utilises gouache's distinct characteristic of opacity. That said I really like the quality of your blending, and this capacity to connect different hues in one particular passage is a fantastic aspect of watercolour. I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer but I think we need to be accurate when describing techniques.
