I recently acquired a set of gouache paints and have started trying them out. Here are a couple birds of paradise and some test strips using gouache in my sketchbook. I have some observations:- Gouache can be re-worked after it dries by adding water
- Gouache acts a lot like watercolor
- It's a really good idea to use quality paper. My sketchbook pages are thin, so they crinkle heavily when they get wet.
I'm currently working on a painting using them on a vinyl record, inspired by some of Lawrence Yang's paintings on vinyl records. I'll post pictures when I finish.
