Guache is actually really popular in Europe (at least in my country). I think it's even easier to get it here than acrylics. In the first years of art school we are usually recommended to use guache before moving on to more advanced paints like oils or acrylics. Interesting how different it is all around the world!
Watercolour is the best paint ( guoache is still cool though, I just find it easier to work with watercolours) imo. But guoache is cool because of the vibrancy mixed with the texture is so cool, they need to make a pan of it but like a pan of watercolour and it's so pigmented that you can put a tiny bit of water on it and it's pretty much acrylic, then the more you put on the more it's like watercolour in a pan Only in Japan could they do that They be living in future lol THE EMOJI RECOMMENDATION I GOT FOR FUTURE WAS CRYING SAME BRO 🤧🤧🤧 👁️👄👁️ Thank you for looking at the emoji face
@@elainejones9400you actually have 2 types of gouache water and acrylic ones. In european countries u have also ( in my country we called it poster paint used by kids that is mutant child of acrylic gouache, tempera . Description u gived for japaneese product match perfectly to our poster paint that even my grandparents used as kids. Tick layer works as acrylic paint if u add alot of water u end up water color that blend and layer better than goache from movie.
My 3 year old 24 color pallet is still fun to play. However, I’ve moved into Holbein for my more focused pieces. Good introduction set to the medium. I don’t think I have the patience to maintain a pallet larger than 24 regardless of the medium. 🙃😉
With watercolor I’m a huge fan of a very limited palette. I used to maintain a 4 color set I used until gone. But gouache for some reason I want all the colors. 🤷♀️
I only opened the colours on one corner and resealed them after use (hence no smearing at the lid and no drying out). And only the ones I used as of yet, the rest is still originally sealed. That helped so much to keep them fresh and nice! Love the artwork you did!
I've never used gouache but it kinda looks similar in texture, the way it air drys and activates with water and the opacity to poster colors. Here in India poster colors are very common and are very popular amongst beginners! Love your videos
Poster colours don't really have much in the way of consistency, it's quite thin and will become a little see-through if you put it on thin. Meanwhile gouache is thick and extremely opaque, so I'm not sure I understand the comparison?
Gouache reminds me of high quality rangela paints, i mean both of them have the jelly like texture and both of them can be reactivated with water. But i still think gouache is better
I'm so interested in trying gouache, I think it's probably just about the only drawing/painting material that I haven't tried. I started art school foundations right after they switch 2D from gouache to acrylic so I just never bothered dabbling with it.
Buy just five tubes of artist grade if you can afford it. I bought lower student grade and while I still enjoy using most of my student grade Cotman watercolors, guache really have a difference in how they work. The worse one was streaky and kinda shiny, and buttery, and I thought that's what giache is. But W&N guache showed me it can be smooth and creamy instead. Much nicer to use, and creates beautiful colors despite very small palette.
The HimI/Maya/Arrtx sets are sooo affordable, even in overseas countries from the US.....and sooo fun to play with! I def recommend! Just store in a snap lock bag before clicking the top lid on and it will stay juicy... mine is 14+ months old and going strong, no mould, no water/glycerin added
@@CazkiwiNZ now that you mention it. For some weird reason that mention it, somehow this paints are cheaper in mexico than in America. (This almost never happens)
Gouache definitely has a learning curve !! But it’s an amazing medium, even if you don’t use it all for one painting, as a watercolor artist you can use it to salvage a painting that’s going south! Lol not traditional for watercolorist but DUDE. It comes clutch lol
It depends pretty heavily on which third party buyer you get it from. The rates vary wide, I’ve seen anywhere from 40 to 100 dollars for this set. It comes wholesale from China I believe and is then distributed through independent Amazon sellers.
As I watch this I am trying to get some neon purple acrylic paint to be a nice opaque color - i am on the 5th coat - so when you talked about the neon getting nice and opaque i was a little jealous lol. I always love your videos so much because you are such a talented artist (I can't draw to save my life - I am much more of a crafter lol) and your end result always blows me away. I hope you have a wonderful vacation - enjoy your time off!
As someone who has really only ever seen gouache talked about as just "that step you do to prime your canvas" this was such a great experience. I might have to look more into it as a medium because it sounds right up my alley.
Gouche was my first actual medium I used to use the really cheap watercolor available to me and it made me hate painting and I leaned more towards sketching but after using gouche it opened me up and now I’m full time into art because of it and I really love how smooth the paint applies it’s so satisfying✨ love your videos by the way❤️ stay cool Rae❤️
Goache isn’t meant to blend like other mediums but you can get just as smooth of an affect with experience and practice. Secondly don’t open every cup, open them as you need and learn to mix. This set will last you forever!!!!! :)
@@mariaperalta9120 translated = Hello that I thought, there would not be everything, only as a fence occupying to avoid drying, how long will they last once opened?
@@mariaperalta9120 I don't have this exact set, I have the smaller one she showed at the beginning with 18 cups. I got that set about 2-3 years ago and all the paints are still very good. I've let them dry out a few times by accident but all I did was put water and mix it with a palette knife. If you do buy these I recommend you store them in a plastic bag so they don't dry out fast, and I would also listen to the comment above and not open them all till I need a color
Thank you for being so inspirational to people who haven't even tried doing art before to start learning! I think that your pieces of art are so beautiful and you deserve more views. :)
Oh my god the thing about not painting with gouache when you're hungry is very true. I once spent evening to dawn on a painting and was craving for chocolate, and I had to catch myself multiple time from wanting to lick the brown paint that looked like pudding.
you don’t actually have to buy a massive set like this :)) it’s better if you’re a beginner to get more of a limited palette as it helps you to learn to mix colours imo it would be better to save money and get a smaller set :))
5:08 Oddly, one the first things I thought once you'd uncovered all the paints was, "That looks like a mega sampler of dipping sauces, intended for a trade show booth." 😄
gouache to me is really really easy to work with and blend, im still getting used to oils and i work with acrylic a lot but gouche is literally my god send when it comes to a paint medium
With gouache its actually really beneficial to work with technique you'd use in oils - from thin (watered) to thick (no water on top layers), its because gouache tenis to crack if its too thick and too dry. :)
I love gouache 💙 And I prefer to keep the consistency in that middle ground between watercolor and acrylic thickness, at least until I’m adding the last details
Hi!! I recent discovered your channel and it has inspired me to get back into art! I’m literally in art school but don’t do any art that isn’t assigned but you have given me my creative flame back so THANK YOU! I just play your vids and do art and it’s like we’re just hanging out doing art together i love it :)
I think water ratio on your paintbrush or on your paper is one of the hardest things to understand or even explain! I think painting and practice and just using the same art supplies over and over is the best way to get a handle on it. Once you "get it" though, it's a great feeling. 🥰
I've been so curious about this kind of paint and what the difference was between it and standard paints like oils and acrylics. To finally know and to see the opacity was amazing. I can't wait to get my hands on some of these bad boys!
I love all types of paints, but Gouache has my heart because of what it capable of. I know Oil Paint can blend much better, but Gouache is my go to paint medium followed by Watercolor then Acrylic. I hacen't painted for sometime, but I am definitely going to check HIMI out. Gouache needs to be known more indeed. 🥰 Edit: Just tried HIMI several months ago I'm loving it! I bought the one where the pans are divided into two and you get more colors. Definitely recommended. I bought their brushes and Sketchbooks for Gouache too. ❤🎉
and more importantly - its matte so it photographs better making it perfect to use for images that will be printed rather then displayed in original. its also probably the most forgiving art medium one can work in as you can both lift it and paint over it.
@@RiteOn That was not always the case. As far as it being "temporary" , there are gouache paintings from the 1500s. It was used by illustrators because it was opaque, dried quickly, and had a matte finish that did not reflect studio lights. Sounds like your school didn't get the facts straight.
@@josephgioielli why are you arguing . . . you've supplied information just as I did. No need to argue. The temporary notion demonstrates an attitude toward gouache at that time; does not including the history of the medium. The gouache of the 1500s is not the same gouache throughout history, including today. As in ALL things, evolution occurs.
"My intrusive thoughts are telling me...to eat this...im not going to but my thought is there"🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 man im so glad you said that because i feel we all get these intrusive thoughts but are too embarrassing to admit so im so glad u did😂
it's so interesting to see how the rest of the world reacts to gouache, because it's super popular in eastern europe and it's mostly the paint that is recommended to children the most, since it's so easy to work with
Whenever I’m feeling anxious I just put on SuperRaeDizzle. Thank you for being a super positive and amazing artist. I love your videos and they always inspire me to create more myself!
I remember being told that gouache was easier than watercolor because it came with fewer rules, but that it was more frequently used in commercial art than in fine arts. Interesting because that now feels like an outdated elitist kind of prejudice that has ripples into the present.
I was in art school in the 70ties (yep, that old..). We used gouache by Royel Talens for 'commercial' assignments. Gouache was indeed used for posters and advertising and such. It was meant to be reproduced in printing and as gouache was not lightfast it was not really suitable for art that would last. Therefor watercolor was more used for artwork that could be displayed without fading. In those days every supermarket would carry gouache as it was used in schools other than art school as well. We never worked with acrylic (I don't think it was readily available in Belgium and experimental at the time) so it was watercolor, oil or gouache and some dabling with tempera. The binder in gouache is gum arabic - same as in most watercolor brands (can also be honey for water color e.g. Sennelier paints) but gouache has some white paint or chalk in it that makes them opaque. Diluted they become transparant. For tempera paint, that is a different binder. Traditionally tempera uses egg yolk as a binder mixed together with raw pigment. It gives the paint a certain luminescence (like you see in orthodox church icons). Tempera is very durable when completely dried and was always used freshly made (before the egg goes bad). It was commonly used before oil paint became a thing in the 15th century. At least, that's what I remember.
@@shivani1692 I believe poster colors are neither gouache nor acrylic. The difference is in the pigments. They are finer in more transparent mediums, and larger in more opaque. Gouache is semi-opaque, while poster paint is much more opaque. Poster paint is similar to acrylic but it dries faster than acrylic. That’s why poster paint is popular for kids, because of the faster drying time.
The main similarities to gouache is that it can be broken down by water after it dries + it has buildable opacity depending on the amount of water used
I got this same set s bit ago, from experience: the smell fades eventually haha (or I just got used to it lol) I loved using it! I couldn't get the hang of cheap acrylics and the expensive brands are... expensive haha. Watercolour I do know a little but I still struggle with it. Then I tried this and it's just *chef's kiss*. It's so forgiving, and it's satisfying to work it. Also great to use together with coloured pencils (I use Polychromos and Luminance) and of course watercolours too
Please dont forget to mix the paint in this palette before you use it. Ive had this set for a good bit and when i first got it the binder in it is a yellow-y thing on the surface. Please mix the paint before using it
I LOVE gouache! I initially tried it thanks to a friend and fell in love. I'm too heavy-handed with watercolor and too light with acrylics. Gouache is the happy niche medium I grew to love.
TO BE HONEST ME AND RAE HAS A COMMON THING SHE PUT OUT OF HER COMFORT ZONE WHICH WAS CHARCOAL AND COLOUR TO OIL WHICH BECAME HER FIRST LOVE LIKE THAT I FELL IN LOVE GOUACHE 😍MY MOST OF MY PAINTING IS GOUACHE LUV U RAE ❤️
You could just open empty boxes and I’d still watch your videos, Rae 🤗🤗🤗🤗 You’re such a sweetheart 🤘🙂🤘 Now for storage, put the palette on, and then store in a big snap lock bag, then snap the to lid on, they’ll stay fresh and juicy... mine are still good after 14+ months and no mould! I’ve never watered them down either 🤗🤗🤗

where I come from it existed for decades and is called "tempera"
Is poster color sam as gouache?
It was the first thing I was taught on in one of my Art schools as an adult in the US in 2005. I love it.
@@allmigthygoddess939 Rae hates tempera
yay
I always love watching people’s first reaction to jelly gouache but I love seeing people come back to it even more! :D
I’ve never tried it before but always felt called to, this may be the time lol

Please dont forget to mix the paint in this palette before you use it. Ive had this set for a good bit and when i first got it the binder in it is a yellow-y thing on the surface. Please mix the paint before using it
AHH I LOVE THE ART PIECEE💗 cannot wait for the prints omg
That box of paint must weigh a literal TONNE
I dont know why but its just so satisfying to test them and enjoyable thanks for the video.

I LOVE gouache! I initially tried it thanks to a friend and fell in love. I'm too heavy-handed with watercolor and too light with acrylics. Gouache is the happy niche medium I grew to love.
I can attest that the gouache set is indeed heavy.
Raeeeee pleaseee pleasee make the painting a print please I love it so much!!!!!!
Who’s REwatching this in 2025? 😊
Me
Every time the song comes on when she’s painting, it always makes me want to dance. Idk what it is but it just gives me that feeling.

Ive always been curious about gouache, thanks for making this video! 😍
Have you been to $5 Below recently? They have some decent art supplies that I would love to see you review 👌
She had done a review on 5 below supplies a couple years ago on her other channel :)

I’m sorry but when she said” he’s beefy🥩!”
It had me cracking up so hard😂😂😂😂!
I hate that this is paint and not food. It *looks* like I should be able to eat it.
lmao did anyone notice the mini purple chair she used as a phone stand at 2:27 ? HAHAHHAH genius
first
The colours are so pretty 🥰🥰
You could just open empty boxes and I’d still watch your videos, Rae 🤗🤗🤗🤗 You’re such a sweetheart 🤘🙂🤘
Now for storage, put the palette on, and then store in a big snap lock bag, then snap the to lid on, they’ll stay fresh and juicy... mine are still good after 14+ months and no mould! I’ve never watered them down either 🤗🤗🤗
I love the jelly gouache. It's just so fun and vibrant!
