      Since gouache reactivates and its also so pigmented its pretty efficient! Its okay
      Although depending on the brand they may be harder to reactivate or may reactivate in a more liquid state. Some others like (from my experience) talens extrafine stay rather creamy sfter reactivating and also it doesnt need too much work

      Maybe it would be good to start with thin acrilic, so it's not reactivated, and then work over it with oil paint or gouache

      Nah, you wouldn't waste much paint, trust me. Even a blob was enough for me to paint a background because it was soooooo pigmented. I've run out of water before the paint.

      I discovered recently too and I love it. It's flat color effect is perfect for drawing in a cartoon and anime style. It will look digital when you ink the painting afterwards. And you don't need much paint at all to cover a big area. It's a very flexible medium.

    Hot tip: keep a spray bottle on hand when working on a longer term project w acrylic!! It keeps it wet to keep it useable ((: I personally use plastic take away containers and whenever its open I I'll mist it every 20 mins or so while I'm painting

    I guess removing fine art education from early education has had an effect on the world.
    I grew up in the seventies and this was taught in grade one; the fact that this is new to so many of you folks everywhere breaks my heart.
    I was looking for some videos to show my kindergarten aged niece and nephew BUT, I am glad that fine art seem is popular again for young people.
    From one artist to others.....much love!

  • @spudeedeelweiss
    @spudeedeelweiss 5 ปีที่แล้ว +31

    I used Gouache for a long time and the main reasons are it offers the best from both watercolor and acrylic. it can be transparent or opaque and can be applied on colored papers, cardboards or even canvas. Watercolor is limited to white papers only and if you applied too much it could make the colors burn while acrylics are permanent so make sure you maximized your pallet before storing them. A fixative substance can be applied if you want your Gouache painting to be permanent.

      In my experience, cheap watercolor don't give as good results as one would expect. Buy a palete which is a bit more expensive but not overly so, no need to go to high-end brands, and you will see the difference. This is coming from an amateur artist who learned the hard way :)

    You can add glycerin to acrylic paints if you don't want them to dry quickly on your paper or canvas. However if you're too adapted to acrylic paints like me, when the drying time changes, you're more prone to making mistakes. You may mix colors on canvas when you're thinking you're adding a new layer. So be careful. 😉

  • @jessicas.488
    @jessicas.488 6 ปีที่แล้ว +63

    I highly recommend using an acrylic medium instead of water! The acrylic paint acts like liquid plastic (sets after about 10 minutes and can't be reactivated) and the water breaks apart the molecules instead of actually working with the paint. Using a thinning medium meant for acrylic will do the same as water but without ruining your painting's quality in the long run!

  • @srednaart
    @srednaart 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I think this was a great video on the different mediums! I started with oils but wanted something that wasn't so messy, then went onto acrylic which is one of my fav mediums but it takes a bit of time to set up/cleanup, then I used watercolors but found that it takes too long to make intense colors, gouche I haven't used but it looks like I can get an intense color right away and cleanup is easier than acrylic and oils. I shall give it a try!

    This was really helpful and interesting to learn about! They didn't teach me the differences between the 3 in my college's art class long ago, just to buy gouache, basic technique on use, and use it for projects. So I had no clue of gouache's capabilities and didn't care for it afterwards. But your video helped me change my mind, haha. Thank you!

    I suck at water colors. When I paint at one place then all appears to have appeared with different strokes. Going here and there. Sometimes, I mix much water, or sometimes much color. It seems to destroy everything I try to create.
    Also, the paint doesn't blend that easily that they say on paper. This is rather hard.

  • @tiffanyhope3620
    @tiffanyhope3620 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Never heard of Gouache before.. So if it can be reactivated after its dry, does that mean to protect it once you are completely finished it needs put in a picture frame or something so that it doesn't accidentally get reactivated & ruined?

    • @Jade.n.
      @Jade.n. 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It re-activates really really easily, so yeah, definitely store or display it with that in mind. Also Gouache is generally not the best medium if you want something that is lightfast. But I love working with it, it's really fun! You can't do the same things with it as watercolor or acrylic though
