Painting Gouache Phase II

On November 19, 2019

Release date:2014

Author:Jeff Watts

Skill level:Beginner

Language:English

Exercise files:Yes

Now that you have successfully completed the Phase I gouache you can open up your palette some more, to a warm/cool palette. This will allow for a full treatment of color. We will again be working up our paintings through the chain of values, but now we will have a greater opportunity to use a juxtaposition of warm and cool tiles, and to turn our forms with temperature rather than blending.

Speaking of blending, Jeff will also show you various blending methods including the old school airbrush. This technique was instrumental to Jeff’s development, as it will hopefully be to yours.

We will execute two male and two female paintings for a total of 4 in this phase. We will be using gouache for many stages of future phases and painting methods, so really apply yourself during your gouache training.
