Thanks to the many artists on Paint Party Friday, I have new art supplies and have begun to experiment.
Gouache is difficult for me to get use to. Fingers and Q-tips do not play a part. It's not like acrylics. . . more like watercolor, but not, albeit water does play a big part. Whoa.
There is a sailboat. . .a tree, a lake, moon, stars, tree, yellow cottage, path and flowers.
The Paint Party Friday is like a learning center and a art center hosted by Kristin and Eva. Thanks so much to these two very talented and creative artists. PPF artists are teachers that are so helpful describing and/or using different art supplies, video's, and at times, step-by-step instructions.
Be sure and visit them all.
Blessings,
Janet
This is lovely, love the moonshine on the water! Valerie
ReplyDeletethis is wonderful for your first work using gouache... they are a bit tricky but once you get the hang of them they are such fun... tubes of pure colour and fun...xx
ReplyDeleteNot at all bad for a first try. I've never tried gouache myself, but I love watercolors. It'll be interesting to hear about your progress in using them.
ReplyDeleteLove your experiment with Gouache Janet, your painting really glows. Happy PPF, Annette x
