Life doesn't get any better than watching you experiment with gouache (my fave) and create . . . while sitting on my sand dune in Baja sipping my morning coffee. Then off to my sketchbook to fiddle! THANK YOU!
Glad i fpund this titorial. Just to mention i bought both the meeden set, and the popular HIMI set. I found the Meeden much better, nicer colours which even tho u can mix HIMI colours from the jelly sets, they just dont have the same llovely result. Colour matters, obviously. Meeden all the way!
I love your comment about mixing on the paper. I always love my mixing palette mess and just never thought of transferring that joy directly to the paper. But now that I’ve done it once, I am hooked. 🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️ Also, I’m totally hooked on your TH-cam channel. I will be picking up your book in Kindle format as soon as I finish seeing how this gouache painting turns out.
Thank you so much! I guess that’s what happens when you don’t really know the “proper” way to use something. You just make it up and see what works! ❤️😃
I received a set of Meeden Acrylics for Mothers Day and absolutely love using them. Colours are vibrant and a little paint goes a long wait. Thanks for this review and your content is most informative and inspiring.
There are very few reviews on this product, so thank you for posting this. I picked up the Meeden gouache as my beginner set, but haven't cracked it open yet. Now I know a bit more about what to expect. This set performed well in lightfastness testing over on Sarah Burns' channel recently, if you're concerned about such things.
I’m still pouting like a baby because you got to meet Maru Godas! 😂❤ You talked me into it😂 I am missing my gouache as I left it at home, and will be up here on dad’s farm till the driveway is fixed because it’s too washed out for dad to drive it. I really like Meeden products and have a few of their palettes and pastel drawers and they are fabulous quality and much cheaper than other versions. The first watercolour set I had was the Meeden 48 half pan set and for $23 AUD you can’t go wrong with it IMO I’ve bought so many sets for my friends too!
I’m trying to convince Maru to come do a workshop in Husky! You’ll be first to know of it happens! That’s great you’re already using Meeden. I was really surprised at the quality vs price ❤️😊
Thank you for this generous gift of witnessing your experimental process with this gouache Tracey. I absolutely loved it. On a separate note I wonder if you would mind sharing what overhead set up you use for these videos as it seems to work very well. Thank you x
You are so welcome! I’m going to do a studio tour soon and will share my filming setup then. It’s quite basic. My husband made me a contraption that sits on my working table!
Thank you so much for doing this experiment. I’ve been wondering about gouache and how I’d use it. What size of brush are you using? I think I need one.

Oh my god those gauche tubes made my heart skip a beat! 😘😘
I shall try and mix on paper. Exciting to watch you work.
Tracy this is such a wonderful way to start my creative day! I’m not an abstract doer as of yet but I may give it a whirl now!

Fascinating to see gouache used in a very different way. I love the combination with acrylic ink.

So beautiful, because of this video i bought meeden gouache and sure will try it thank you❤

About time you got some gifts! The travel water colours you showed at the start, were there reds/ magenta? A range of blues and greens?
Yep! It has all the colors!! ❤
Love it, Thank you❤🎉
thank for sharing. next time I purchase gouache, I will check out the Meeden brand. I do have their acrylic paints. They work pretty well for me.
Wonderful! ❤️
Gorgeous 😍
Love love love! Please can I ask what brush you are using? Xxx
You are welcome! It’s a one inch flat brush, a cheapie. Look up golden Taklon sets and you’ll find them. :)
@@tracyverdugo thanks Tracy :-)))

Thanks Lesley, that’s good to know!
I haven't used gouache in ages. Gonna break it back out. And I Love the idea of this pad being glued on all four sides. Did you find it buckled?
It didn’t buckle at all!

Awesome video! Does the paint have a strong odor?
Thank you! There’s no odour at all. ❤
@@tracyverdugo wonderful, I just ordered a set! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for doing this experiment. I’ve been wondering about gouache and how I’d use it. What size of brush are you using? I think I need one.
You are so welcome! It’s a one inch flat brush. Not expensive. You can usually find them in a golden taklon set :)
