I've been searching the difference between watercolour and gouache past few hours and I didn't saw an explanation like this. This is a masterpiece. Explanation is very clear and very good. Thanks.
I can’t believe no one has commented on this video before. I think it is very helpful for beginners or for artists who are using one medium and want to explore the other.
This is the absolute best, clearest and most concise explanation of the differences between watercolor and gouache that I have heard. I have been using watercolor for about five months and just bought my first set of gouache paints and haven't really started yet. When I opened the first tube I couldn't help but wonder why people don't just use gouache as watercolor by adding water or watercolor as gouache by not adding water but now I see the difference. Thank you!
I’m really enjoying your channel. This is a wonderful explanation. I do have a question do the two mediums mix. In other words can I start out with watercolor and add gouache Or vice versa?
I’m glad it was helpful! The answer is YES! And I do this all the time with my work so gouache and watercolor most definitely play nice together. Like you said, I would start with the watercolor and end with the gouache!
Get mostly watercolor and one tube of permanent white gouache. A cheat is that you can “gouachify” watercolors by adding white gouache to them 😉 I do this when I travel 😉
Hi there. No gesso necessary for watercolors. Typically gesso is used as a base to prime your material for acrylics or oils sometimes. Just use watercolor paper 👍

Ha! Congrats on being number 1 😉 and yes! Hopefully it can help artists with the gouache vs watercolor debate!
