Description

Michael Sanders introduces this hugely versatile opaque medium and demonstrates how techniques such as wet into wet, wet on dry, masking, sgraffito and spattering can be used to create beautiful paintings. He goes on to explain how tone, colour and composition work in a painting and shows how to use gouache to paint a landscape, wild flowers and a Mediterranean river scene. Experienced painters and beginners to the art will be inspired by his clear advice and beautiful paintings to try gouache for themselves.
