- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- In this video I compare the different kinds of gouache that I've used so far. I did not try every brand out there and don't intend to buy more products but there are all of the ones I've tried so far. Personally I'd buy a beginners set of Winsor and Newton Designers Gouache and a set of Turner Acrylic gouache.

I use Himi Gouache personally, and I really enjoy it as a casual artist!
I agree about the smell! It does smell weird, but it's honestly not that huge of a deal to me, as once it's dried down and I close the palette it doesn't smell at all in my workplace.
I really like its consistency because I'm used to using Acrylic paint, I like how I can control how much or little of the paint I have, and I'm learning better how not to use too much/how a little can go a long way when mixed to the right opacity.
I think it's a great beginner gouache paint and its pretty accessible as someone in the US, although finding refills can be difficult and I'm debating what I'll do when I run out of certain colors. Time to get better at mixing? lololol!
Also super cheap compared with to others! Tbh I think it’s better that it has a lot of a single colour instead of a bunch of colours because it teaches you how to mix colours better. Only thing is weird is that the colours always dry out because they’re not in tubes
The HIMI gouache, Lindsay from the Frugal Crafter said if you let the paints dry out they perform much better closer to artists grade.
Thanks for sharing that :)
I don't agree with it. I have a dried himi gouache and it is really hard to get into the consistency you want.
She later says she regrets letting her pallet dry out and that they are more transparent now. She now tries to keep them from drying out!
@@christamcgill3870 how about the tube one?
the HIMI has more binder than pigment. that's why they seem less opaque, and don't perform well for laying flat layers.
Thank you sharing your experiences with the different media. It helps to make an informative decision when buying new supplies. I hope that others are equally appreciative.
Glad it was helpful!
I'm looking into getting acryla gouche because I'm more familiar with acrylic paint than I am with watercolour and it seems like a good starting point and you cemented that idea with your overview, which was really helpful. So thanks! New subscriber. :D
Acryla gouache is just acrylic paint.
It's similar but it's not the same :)
My himi Gouache set smelled pretty strongly, too, but it fainted after they dried out a bit. The arteza set I have didn't smell at all. Personally I prefer the arteza Gouache over the himi, but I prefer the big containers of the himi Gouache. Arteza is perfect for beginners, but if you're serious about it, I would opt for better quality like Windsor and Newton or Schminke.
I have the himi gouche never ever smelt anything
I have four different Himi gouache sets and they don't smell bad at all. If anything they smell very faintly like the poster paint we used in school.
I really want to try using gouache, but I'm having such a hard time deciding between Himi and Arteza 😩
I’m stuck between Himi and magicfly now.
i think himi is a great place to start!! my only con is that it’s not in a tube as i’ve gotten tired of having to use a lot of water to reactivate it
@@notionals2237 I’ve been wondering about using some fluid medium to activate it. Or some videos on using glycerine have popped up.
I haven’t tried Himi yet, but I really love my Arteza gouache set!
I never can decide if given a choice.. but I love Arteza. I get amazing quality for a great prize. Arteza is $6-$8 less. I like the tubes over cups...
Every time I’m looking for a video for gouache paint I love coming to visual mine page because oh my gosh everything on their page is so cute and it looks like something I want to do I love all their style💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
No hate but Mel's pronouns are they/them no hate btw 😊💕
Thank you so much! And yes, my pronouns are they/them 🥰
Super excited to watch this! I’m a beginner myself so this will be super useful! Thank you for posting videos for beginners like me! 💞💞💞
You're welcome!! 😊
That cardigan painting❤️
Thank you. That was very helpful. I have never used acryla gouache before and the Holbein ones look amazing with your style.
You're welcome & thank you 😊
Great comparison, but it's difficult to focus on what you're saying when you're showing such beautiful pieces of art!
I do have the Himi, they dry really quickly. I think the gouache is better in tubes. It is not bad buy, but since buying the Winsor and Newtons designer gouache, these are much better choice. More expensive, yes but I don't have to fight as much as I do with himi.
Thank you for the comparison. When it comes to affordable, quality painting products, I love Arteza. Their prices are great..I enjoyed your video!
Thankyou this was so helpful!! I really want to start using gouache now I have some ideas of what brands to buy :) 💕
You're so welcome!
I own both the Turner and the Acryla Gouache from Holbein. The Holbein ones are the best, more creamy, easier to spread. The Turner ones are way too thick (like true acrylics), making it difficult doing small details with them, and their metallic colors formula is defective: the tubes separated their binder after only 2 years, making them useless (I had bought the whole set, this was a problem with their metallics). Overall, Holbein has the best colors and consistency. And yes, they're much more expensive but you get what you pay for.
That's very interesting because I find that my Turner paints are thinner in consistency. So my experience is the other way around... I find Turner are easier to spread but Holbein are more opaque. At the end of the day I love both brands though. I've never tried the metallics but good to know! Thanks for sharing your experiences :)
Turner recommends thinning their acrylic gouache at a 2:1 ratio.
I just completed my first painting using my Holbein Designers Gouache. The Holbein gouache was a dream to work with. I had previously used Arteza gouache and Royal Talens Art Creation "gouache". I use all my gouache from a dried state. The Holbein reactivated easily, the coverage was great without streaks and it was very easy to blend colors on the page. Arteza gouache is decent to work with but I personally hate many of the colors. I bought the 60 color set so I wouldn't have to mix colors, but most of the colors are so garish that I end up having to mix just to tone them down. The more I use it, the more I like the Art Creation gouache. It's really runny out of the tube and usually takes more than one layer to attain opacity, but the color range in the set is really good, it's super cheap and it reactivates from a dry state easily. The colors in the Art Creation set are dull compared to Holbein, but I really like them for just messing around on something that isn't important.
Woah, the fact Himi could have an odor is disheartening. I really wanted one because I enjoy having the colours all laid out. I think I'll just get the sealed palette with the deep wells instead and just use up my normal gouache 👍
I've got the himi and have not noticed a smell
I have himi gouche never smelt anything!!!
himi paint smells good to me 😌
Mine is so stinky XD
Do you prefer using watercolor or acrylic brushes with gouache?
I really love your art. Your style is what I aspire to create. I did a couple of your RUclips tutorials for gouache and loved them
Thank you. I brought gouache and didn't like it but I wasn't sure if it was me or the cheap brand. I love water colour. I don't mind acrylic.
Probably the cheap brand if you like watercolors as well as acrylics. Very cheap gouache is not opaque enough and can be a pain to work with!

NOTE: After finishing this video I realized that the prices vary a lot. Products that used to be cheap might be expensive a week later as well as the other way around. A lot of products might also not be available right now. So take all of that into account and take my advice with a grain of salt please :)
All the products are linked in the description box and I get a small commission if you decide to buy anything with my links. (Even if you buy something completely different) That supports my channel a lot. I'll do more videos on the products that I already have but currently don't want to buy more since I'm running out of space and don't want to waste materials.
Thank for this video. Prices vary idd a lot. Some products I used to buy all the time because it was a good price are now 1/3 more expensive :/
Hi I have a question. What type of brushes do you recommend to use? I currently have I think some nylon ones and a typical mixed media brush set, but I’m debating on whether or not I should buy synthetic ones
Nice overview! Loved that the video format covered usage and pros and cons list.
Glad you liked it!
@@VisualMind I absolutely love ur videos. May u make many many more!
Himi, the smell is Petroleum as per another Vlogger who said she checked with the company.
I dont think himi is supposed to smell like that. mine faintly smells of paint, but it's not bad and i have to almost dip my nose in the paint to smell it at all
Same
I noticed it says tempura on the Lukas. I don't know if that's a translation thing, but tempura is made with eggs and is not gouache as we understand it. But when I'm in Europe I see tempura called gouache, watercolor etc. So hm. Hard finding a good opaque gouache that isn't over $50
This is probably confusing but my comment was cut off, so I will try to finish,(awkward)😬! Anywhoo, you did a great job, and have me fresh desire to throw more $$$ on art supplies. New sub,👍🏻. Thanks again, Robin
Brilliant video - so useful to someone just about to buy and learn to use gouache!
You are so inspiring! This video is really helpful for me, and your voice is really nice and relaxing ☺️
I love the himi gouche, but I’ll agree it’s easy to use to much if your not careful, but I bought this brand because of the price point and I’m a beginner for the medium.
I love Artezas Gouache! The colors are amazing!
Super interesting video ! Glad I’m not the only one who thinks that the himi paints stinks :) I’m used to the gouache of Royal Talens (lightfast, and available in my area) and it only costs €4 per tube of 20 ml.
I like (even now) to just go to my nearest store and buy a tube I need and that I can buy the color I want not as a whole set.
I looking into acrylic gouache, I now have bought liquitex acryl gouache. The smell is the reason why they are still unused :)
Where did you find that canson sketchbook with the spiral on the side ? Here in Belgium you can only buy them with the spiral on top which I hate. Your flip through that sketchbook at the end is just so satisfying. So pretty
Thank you! To be honest, the Holbein Acrylic Gouache also has a bit of a smell - which I realized after this video. The Turner Acrylic Gouache is way more subtle. I bought the Sketchbook at Michaels when I was in New York a few years ago. You might find it on Amazon :)
A very informative video, seeing the different brands mentioned.
I subscribe to Skillshare and your classes are fab! Thanks for all of the RUclips content too ❤️
I'm glad you enjoy the classes and content :)
I lovvvvve the beautiful color I the Arteza 60 Gouache, gorgeous colors!
I do not know if it is me, but, I use W&N Designer's Gouache; I know W&N makes excellent products, but, I have some problems layering, especially when I try using an opaque color as white.
Holbein contient de l’acrylique, c’est la raison pour laquelle elle ne se réactive pas une fois sèche.
The HIMI really smells bad and gives me headache. 😢😢 I gave my 18 palette set away. I hope they can solve this issue because I really love it's consistency and price.
I noticed himi gouache has a really bad smell too. It was really strange . that's the only thing I hate about it . love ur vid and ur channel ;)
I'm glad I'm not the only one :D Thank you :)
@@VisualMind no problemo ;) . have you ever noticed any other gouache having a weird smell?
Same for me, but I think it started to go away once I started to mix them once they were dried or I just got used to the smell and I can’t smell them anymore 🤣
Thank you.
Go on Amazon Japan and buy the holbein that way they are much cheaper...
These colors I used are oil or watercolor What is the quality of the sketchbook?
Really appreciate this video. Very helpful.
The Acrylic holbein are good in a stay wet palette
thank you so much for all this information 💕
Really useful! Thanks so much for this, I think I'm going to start with W&N. Thanks
Jerry's Artarama sells Lukas paints in their stores and on their website. The have exclusive rights to sell Lukas in the United States.
Thank you for the video. Informative!
Useful video 🙌💜
Thank, I'm glad you think so 😊
That's a shame about Lukas gouache as it's the cheapest option where I like, but maybe that's WHY it's the cheapest option!! I like Holbein, but the price!! Thanks for this review!
I agree! If you were to use a different style without flat layers it might work much better. You're welcome 😊
Very helpful! Thank you!
Himi does smell bad. Some of the colors also come more wet then others so DON'T stick it in you backpack unless they have dried a bit.
Thanks for sharing!
I Wanna get back into painting whit himi miya gouache 56 colours and i wanna try acrylic gouache from liquitex 😊 i love this video
Glad it was helpful 😊
Have you tried Turner's regular traditional gouache? I'm curious how you would compare them to Holbein and Winsor and Newton. The Turner brand is pretty affordable here in the US compared to the other two. And locally accessible for me at Jerry's Artarama. I can get Holbeins Acryl Gouache at Texas Art Supply but not their traditional gouache. I'd have to order it online but curious what your comparison thoughts are.
Unfortunately I haven't tried those! In fact I didn't even know they made water soluble gouache. Right now I'd rather use the materials I already have than trying new ones :)
Sounds like Arteza are the best options for gouache colours.
The himi does smell awful and the under layers lift so crazy easy. I don't have either issue with my holbein or w&n
Hello Visual Mind. Are you from the netherlands? I live in the netherlands 😊 i ordered the Liquitex acrylic gouache and i ordered the 56 colour set of himi miya 😊i painted whit watercolours and oils but it wasnt for me so i am going back to gouache and i wanna try acrylic gouache cause i tryed acrylic already 😊👍🏾👋🏾 i hope you have a nice day😊👋🏾👍🏾
