If you’ve been curious to try the fun, friendly and forgiving medium of gouache, but are reluctant to commit to buying paint, this one day workshop is an introduction to gouache with materials supplied.
Gouache an opaque version of watercolor that dries very quickly to a beautiful matte finish. Like watercolor, gouache thins and cleans up with water. Unlike watercolor, gouache is opaque and includes white paint, so you can paint light colors over dark, like oil, requiring much less planning than transparent watercolor. We’ll work from photographs (supplied, though students are welcome to bring their own) and explore some of the basic techniques in this versatile painting medium.
All materials will be supplied for this one day workshop. (There is a materials fee of $10.)
$120.00 ($100 for DAM members)
