EVFAA 106 - Painting with Gouach

Institution:

Moore College of Art and Design

Subject:

Description:

Similar to watercolor, but easier to control, gouache has unique properties of opacity, matte finish and rapid drying that allow for a fluid working style. The medium's potential for a wide variety of results - from loose sketches to more formal rendered work - cause it to be favored by many artists, illustrators and designers. Working from direct observation of still life and the natural world, the class focuses on techniques of color mixing, wash and brushwork that allow students to experience gouache's spontaneity and immediacy. Composition and color theory are also covered. Open to all levels.
