- In this video I'm comparing 12 of the most popular Professional level gouache brands available today. I bought everything with my own money so I'm not obligated to be nice! These are my HONEST thoughts and reviews about each brand. I'll show you swatches, do test paintings, talk about lightfastness and price, and all my thoughts about paint consistency and opacity. I was surprised by a few of these brands, and I think you will be too!

It just occurred to me how excited I am to literally watch paint dry. Only fellow artists will understand 😂 thank you Sarah ❤️
🤣
SAME!!
Indeed 😂😂😂
made me smile - right backatcha :)
Omg yes! I watched a watercolor swatch video and one color turned from a beautiful cobalt blue to drying with a bit of berry red in it. I watched it and gasped at how beautiful it turned over the span of a few minutes.
NOTE: Regarding the brand comparisons & water usage. This is purely experimental to compare the TRUE consistency of each brand, which is only possible if I use the *same* amount of water for each brand. In a "normal" painting session with any single brand, you'd use as much water as necessary to get it to work. So don't take my experiment as the end-all-be-all answer. They are all great to be honest. My comparison shows the inherent quality of each consistency - it's up to you to add as much water as needed to get it to perform how YOU like it.
It's nearly impossible to compare so many brands without nitpicking little things. Any of these would be a good purchase, and so much of it depends on your technique.
And yes I realize I switched the alphabetical order of Schmincke & Shinhan ...my brain stopped working after endless days of editing/narrating 😂 Anyways...enjoy!
I don’t understand the switching of Schminke and shin Han- are you saying if going down the alphabet that Schminke should be before shin Han or the actual demonstration was mixed up?
@@janaemerson3344 yes alphabetically I messed up
This video is of archival quality...should be kept as Reference in museums for Art reference with regards to Gouache. All the companies should award you. Really I mean it. This is a humongous effort👏👏👏👏Well done!!!
This comparison is unparalleled. Not only your in-depth information on consistency opacity and binder/additives etc. But doing a painting with each ( even sharing your technique 8 paintings is so cool) -- just great content Sarah... you're the best
Thank you!
Would you be interested in creating a formulation of quality guoache, Sarah?
@@karylm23 what do you mean?
I'm just curious if you would ever offer your own set of gouache at some point just like you offer brushes! With all this amazing research you've been doing, we trust what you think!
This is so good! Winsor and Newton are the first and only Gouache set that I've bought, I got them because of James Gurney, and they've been really nice!
I'd be surprised if the honey based ones mold more easily considering honey is naturally antibacterial and as itself actually cannot mold or go bad.
it doesn't go mouldy for me, but I had ants eat my painting inside when I wasn't watching
Thank you and thank you for the thorough reviews! I super appreciate your attention to every detail and found this incredibly helpful! And I loved that you showed us a painting for each brand!!!
Fantastic job. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this
Awesome as always thankyou for taking the time to put all this together 🤩
Thanks so much for such an in-depth comparison. Really appreciate all of your time and hard work and seeing each brand in a beautiful painting!
Wow, Sarah, this was awesome and so helpful! I appreciate all of the time and effort this took, I have done some testing on a much smaller scale and know the time it takes. Thanks! Everyone of your paintings, including the student gouache, turned out beautifully. Again, thanks!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching you painting in this video! Thank you for your hard work reviewing these brands!
Thank you for taking the time to do this. It is greatly appreciated 🙏

I loved watching this video. So much information about gouache and their reactions on paper. Your paintings are gorgeous as you seemed to glide through them with easy. It really was a pleasure to see. Thank you for sharing.
Wow that’s a great amount of research & testing of brands. I can definitely see a difference between the brands & the final results of each of the paintings. I really appreciate you doing this testing & making this gouache database. Thanks so much for sharing your time, thoughts, & knowledge of gouache!! 💕🎨😃

This was really useful and eye opening, thanks for delving so deep into this for us! 🖤
What a great work, Sarah! Thank you so much for this. I'm still undecided, but this certainly helps. All of your sample paintings are beautiful too! I love following you.
Wow! What an excellent review/comparison video. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you put each paint into practical application. Unlike most reviewers who only paint swatches and then give their (useless) opinion. Thank you for spending so much time on this video. Much appreciated and very helpful in helping me to decide on a couple of brands I would like to try.
Amazing review as usual Sarah ! Thanks, really helpful !
Best comparison ive seen so far! Thank you so much for this video ❤
Thank you so much for including ingredients comments (like types of binders and animal products and so on). It makes it so much easier to make an informed choice.
Just caught up on both reviews...great videos and super informative! 🙌 Thank you so much for a thorough and insightful look. 🙏❤ Really enjoyed the comparisons and your beautiful artwork. The Dale Rowney and ShinHan were eye openers for me. Looking forward to the mould and lightfast test results.
Thank you very much for this complete comparison, Sarah. I have enjoyed it very much, and learnt a lot!
What an extraordinary work you put into this video. Thank so so much for sharing all this insight and knowledge so generously with everyone. It's incredibly helpful. Thank you for real!
Brilliant video, gorgeous paintings, and great information. Thank you 💖
Easily the most helpful gouache video ever. Thank you, Sarah! ❤
Great brand comparison and prices. Loved your detailed comparison and your thoughts. Very helpful video
Wonderful comparison!!!! I really enjoy the video, and learn a lot about binders...thank you so much!
Hi Sarah, I really appreciate you doing this tests and sharing your time and thoughts. Your paintings turned out beautifully. Thank you so much for sharing!🥰
Thank you so much for this very detailed, labor intensive and thorough review. I really appreciate how much you share your expertise and what you have learned putting these brands through their paces. Really looking forward to your next video.
Awesome video! This was so informative and your paintings are gorgeous!
Well done Sarah. Super informative and very much appreciated. 🎨
Thank you so much for your database and everything ❤❤❤
I'm new to gouache and to your site and now am a fan of both! What gems you are sharing!! Thank you!!
WOW! This is the most thorough review EVER! Excellent video! Thank you for posting! And, checked out your website and it's equally fabulous and thorough. Very impressive!
This was one of the best reviews I've ever seen thank you so much, it was amazing and so informative. The artwork you showed with each was an absolute pleasure to watch as well. Thank you again ❤️.
This is such a useful video Sarah , thankyou so much for taking the time to make it xxx
Thank you! Very informative and complete review. And you are seriously GOOD at painting! ❤❤❤
I'm completely new to gouache and have picked up a HIMI set to get started. This video was a joy to watch and I've bookmarked it to refer back to when I'm ready to upgrade to nicer gouache piants. Thank you for putting it together!
So much hard work! Thank you for the review. I am starting with guache and I can hardly describe how many research hours you saved me from 💕. The testing window is fun 😄
Thank you for all the hard work you do informing us. And your artwork as always is beautiful and magical. I found you through your watercolor world and have since been drawn into gouache but I still love watercolors. Again, thank you for the videos you create.
Thanks for much for this fantastic comparison video. I found it to be very helpful!
Thank you, Sarah--you demonstrated these very nicely, and you articulated the key comparison points very well. I'm subscribing!
Thank you so much for these videos!! I really appreciate all the work!
I thought this was a great comparison and review of the major brands available. What needs to be noted is that you are able to make any one of them look fantastic, something to aspire to! Now, I will watch the student Gouache comparison video. Thank you for taking so much time to help us learn!
woww, just when i was thinking of buying gouache but being overwhelmed byu the options, this video comes out!! It was an amazing video which is super informative, thanks for taking all the time to make this!!
Thank you for spending the time on this video which is so informative and most useful to know. I used W&N Gouache exclusively for designs and was always happy with it years ago. Now I am looking forward to trying some Holbein Gouache after watching your review.
This is a really thorough comparison, thank you very much! Gouache tubes are pretty expensive so this is really helpful to know before purchasing 😊
What an amazing video. The work that went into this is pretty rare - especially on TH-cam. Kudos!
I actually found your blog first before this video. Great to see painting in action!
Oh wow! This has been a huge undertaking for you! Thank you do much for sharing your results and opinions! I’m looking forward to the follow up videos about mold etc! You have solved a great puzzle for me deciding which gouache to buy! I use it out of the tube but have been curious to try a wet pallet.
Oh my goodness! So much work so much valuable info!! You’re amazing. Thank you ❤
Thank you for all your hard work! Watching you is inspiring.
Such a great review, Thank You for all the time and effort you put into this. Working with the Himi and Arteza currently to just get brush mileage with a low cost price. This will be great advice for when I am ready to level up.
So impressed that you put in so much time and effort to review all these products. I am using my Windsor and Newton Designer set. This Gouache is beautiful and they are a real step up again from the Student grade I used at College. Hearing your review on this Gouache is reassuring and I will replace them as tubes as I go. Looking forward to the mould review. Thank you for this review, so helpful.
Thank you for the work you put in! Very interesting and thorough, as usual
I just wanted to say thank you for this video. It was so informative and your art is so beautiful, a pleasure to watch you paint :)
Thank you for doing this! Your time and energy spent definitely shows! 👏🤩
Your videos are so well done and I love your style. You are so informative and easy to listen to. Thank you for your wonderful videos.
Thank you for all this info and the time and care you put into everything!
This is the first video of yours that I’ve watched (found through a Google search!). It was very well done - the commentary was detailed and honest. I’ve been wanting to add gouache to my watercolour paintings - I’ve been doing florals with a simple, solid background and gouache seems the best option. Now I can feel confided in my purchase. Thank you for your time and effort in putting this together.
Your hard work was a pleasure to watch and helped a lot. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your time and findings - it is appreciated!
That is really useful and illuminating. Thank you!
Amazing video!! Thanks for making this!! Your paintings are truly breathtaking!!
Thanks for the comparison!!! It is amazing work and it helps me to decide which one I would like to dip my toes into. Thanks you!!!
Can’t wait to try Daniel Smith Gouache! Thanks for the thorough review!
Wow, this was an amazing review! Thank you for all your hard work. I started with Holbein and really struggled with the paint to water ratio. Thanks to one of your classes I learned about Winsor and Newton and that was much easier. Now that I have a few years of experience, I have no problem with Holbein and love their colors.
What an amazing video, thank you so much. It was so informative and helpful.
Thank you for all the great information and the time you put into it! 💓
That was really interesting and helpful, thankyou!
What an incredibly helpful and beautifully made video. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and expertises so generously.
Such an informative video and so lovely beautiful coastal scenes, very lively atmospheric 🙏 thanks for your effort!
Fantastic video and research Sarah! It’s been a long time since I’ve found a gouache video that was completely useful to me but you nailed it! And it was a joy to see several of your sketches back to back. Thank you for this valuable resource!
Glad it was helpful!
Super helpful thank you! I am new to gouache and want to give it a go, so this is really helpful to know which brand to start with.
Great reviews and paintings Sarah. I was particularly impressed by how you still gave an honest review of the Schminke even though it caused you moral questions. I only found your videos recently and have watched many since. Thank you for all your help. :)
AWESOME REVIEW !!!!!! GOOD, GOOD HARD WORK HERE !!! THANK YOU AMAZING SARA !!!!!❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Hi Sarah. Jim again from Madrid (Spain).
First of all, THANK you very much for this video.
Second, it is very interesting and informative.
It helps a lot to be able to better understand the differences between brands without the need to spend a large lump sum at the beginning. So thanks again for that.
I've been using mainly W&N designers Gouache so far, but I will now be able to revisit some other brands to check them out (my budget on paint is split between watercolors and gouache so I am always trying to be smart on my costs).
Again, thanks and even though I don't post everyday I always follow you in your TH-cam channel.
Cheers from Madrid!
This is so helpful! Thank you for making this video ❤😊💖🤗
I'm halfway into the video, and I just wanted to say, it's informative enough to help me gauge what gouaches would work for me. The feeling of working with the gouaches, opacity, swatches, mixing, wetness, a demonstration of how they work from the tube, as well as a full illustration to show the outcome, and pricing. I like that the music isn't overwhelming the narration, that can easily make listening aggravating.
Very helpful information. Thank you!
I used the Royal Talens gouache for a class as a requirement and another class required a few W&N gouache... The difference was staggering and I think you're spot on with your review, I had the exact same experiences. Thank you for taking the time to do this!
Excellent study. It's very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for all your hard work on this, Sarah!
Thank you so much ! Your video will help me to choose my first set of gouache ! ❤
that was really helpful - thanks for doing all of this.
You're very welcome!
