Gouache: Beginning & Intermediate (Ages 12+)

Gouache is one of the most versatile and fun painting mediums that seems to be becoming more and more popular in recent years. Gouache (pronounced gwash) is an opaque water-based medium that allows one to work from dark to light, which makes a lot of sense to oil painters. However, it’s much less messy and can be easily used for preparatory studies, plein air work, travel, and more. Watercolorists appreciate the opaque quality of gouache and many have added this medium to their arsenal. In this course, we will learn how to use gouache by exploring the ins-and-outs of this medium. Topics will include the pros and cons of wet vs dry painting, surface exploration, edges, tiling, color and color mixing, paint consistency, palette options, supplies, and more. We will focus on creating a variety of small paintings as we learn how to paint with gouache. Beginners are welcome to join and will be given some beginning lessons before jumping into more complex paintings. On-going students will be presented with new projects and lessons. This class is taught in English. No class May 7th! PRICE: $99 for 4 Week Class. DIFFICULTY REGISTERING? Please call our main office for assistance! 801.474.3796
