    Thank you for describing the paints as "orangey red" etc instead of the actual name of a certain brand. So many times when I watch tutorials like these, I feel limited to do much of anything because I don't have that exact color. Thank you ❤

      it's great to hear that was useful, I'll try to do that as much as possible! thank you 💕

    I swear mesmerising doesn't suffice as an adjective....your soft soft layering and the way the shapes just *materialise* before my eyes like water clearing and revealing a smooth layered rock

    I'm so excited to try your tutorial. This is going to be my FIRST EVER gouache experience and I have to say, I literally do not have any idea what to expect. It's been described to me as many different consistencies; all I know is, I'm in. Looking forward to the peppers!! Thank you for making this look so fun, easy, and informal.

    This was exactly what I needed. I recently picked up the same gouache and since starting to paint, I couldn't figure out why some things looked flat ! This definitely helped me !

    This is so helpful to use when painting, but could you maybe do a video on mixing it and how you get the color you like and the consistency? Like I felt like when I tried to replicate this or attempt to, it was a lot more watery and blended together too much. :(
    I love your style of painting!

    Just found your channel and am loving of, most helpful videos I’ve found with gouache!
    I’m having a problem with not achieving the creamy, vibrant colours from my paints. I have the same palette, but think it’s down to not understanding water levels & being impatient with waiting to dry, it takes so long!!. I also have cheaper brushes and sketch book, does that make a difference?

    • @sofiapavanmacias
      @sofiapavanmacias  Год назад +1

      So glad they’re helpful 🥰 it sounds like you may be diluting the paint with too much water, to keep the vibrancy of the color you want to make sure it is not too diluted. My first layer is more like a melted butter consistency and then the layers on top of that are much less diluted so the paint is kind of firmer… I hope that makes sense- I’ll make a vid on it!

    Heya!! I was curious on how you refill your paints? I am after 3 days already almost out of white and really need a new one. However I cannot find any website where I could buy the individual cups :(

    • @sofiapavanmacias
      @sofiapavanmacias  10 месяцев назад +2

      Hi! I've gotten pouches from the same paint brand in the past, they aren't individual cups but you can refill the empty cup with the pouch several times... not sure if they still do them!

    Sofia...do you sell gouache painting? Do you sell any other medium painting? I'm asking basically to know why we all ( including me) spend so much time on gouache which is least saleable! I know just for fun. But someday you want use all these skills to create oils or acrylics I suppose
