Actually Gouache and Tempera are not the same, they use different binders. Gouache is made of pigment with gum arabic as a binder, and Tempera is made of pigment and egg yolk. (casein is pigment and milk)
Sarah Burns Studio! Wonderful gouache plein air painter in Scotland. I learned gouache with W&N Designer’s gouache in 1989. James Gurney has done extensive plein air gouache for a looong time. I’m glad to see the younger generations turning on to its possibilities.
Clean up is easy too. Just water.
Love Sarah Burns! I'm subscribed to her monthly gouache boxes (12-month program) and it's fantastic.
Lena Rivo’s online gouache class covers everything you need to know about gouache painting. Fantastic art instruction too.
James Guerney, great gouache painter.
Along with Tiffanie Mang, Angela Sung, Mike Hernandez, Tommie Kim, and Lena Rivo.
Yes, I think think James Guerney might be the biggest reason for the resurgence of interest in Gouache. His videos are very popular.
I have been using gouache since the 80’s… it’s funny how it’s become so popular! I travel with gouache and also do quick sketches and paintings on site. One note.. and I found out the hard way… There are two types of gouache out there, one is traditional, can be brought back to life and the other is Acrylic Gouache… which dries like acrylic and can not be reworked… this does a number on your pallet and should be scraped out or wiped clean when finished. I try all brands and look in the sale bins at art stores… make sure you look at the label! Another note.. when I teach beginners about gouache I say that it’s like “Tempera in a tube”…. Yes, most people are familiar with tempera… Thanks so much for the great video.
Gouache is just so much more versatile than any other medium. IMO You can paint it thin like watercolor, you can paint it thick with in reason. Paper, Canvas, board prepared properly no problem. No solvents, no real mediums... you can make it look like just about everything. To top it off in a world where so many of us only have an hour here or there some days. I can start a gouache painting, and put it up at any point and pull it down a day a week or a month later and finish it. Love gouache.
Great demo! Love Allie, beautiful work! :)
I started plein air painting with gouache! James Gurney turned me on to it, you absolutly have to see his RUclips channel.
I built the sketch easel and everything ❤
It's a great medium for oil painters becaues you can use similar methods.
It does reactivate, wet layers reactivate the ones underneath and it needs a light touch.
Also the hue shift when it dries takes practice and getting used to.
But it really is a wonderful medium!
I’m an oil painter but tried gouache a few months ago and am in love with it! I use Doorlands wax to make my gouache work waterproof.
Just found this older video with Allie Zeyer! I've just started with Gouache and watching Allie helped me understand that I could use a bit more water.
Thank you so much!
Hi from Atlanta. I love her paintings!
I learnt to paint with Gouache .. I loved it, but I wanted to try Actylic, Watercolor & Oil. I have come full circle now and want to use Gouache again.
Rewatching, again. I love Art School Live!!! Thank you, Eric, incredible demo, Allie.
This is a wonderful lesson. As a watercolorist, this reminds me of oil........which I haven't done tried for 40 years, also as an amateur!
Thank you Allie & Eric.
It was so interesting to see gouache from the perspective of an oil painter, who, perhaps approaches it from the opposite direction of a watercolor artist. Although gouache and watercolor have so many similarities, they almost work in an opposite technique, and I think that is the hardest Obstacle for a Watercolor artist.
I sometimes use gouache as a background to my watercolors. Because they are opposites I find that they complement each other quite nicely. I also see them playing a more important role if I decide to push the multimedia approach rather than strictly Watercolor. It would be a nice lead in to adding other media that might be more foreign to a watercolor artist such as watercolor pencil, pastel, collage etc.
Allie gave me a lot of techniques & tips for exploring gouache, which is to me a fresh & exciting medium in its own right.
I just bought Holbein’s set of mixing gouache using CMY+Black & White- a good place to start I think.
Happy exploring!
This was an excellent demonstration. Thank you. I am inspired to try out gouache even more now.
An incredible demo along with Allie’s generosity sharing valuable tips. Thank you!
I’ve heard so much lately about gauche. I have been a little nervous about trying it, but this has given me the confidence to give it a try. Beautiful painting!!! Thank you for sharing 😊
Hi, from Toronto, Canada. Gouache is completely new to me. Acrylic is my medium. So, I’m a sponge and anxious to learn.
I'm watching months later that the live presentation, it would be helpful for Ms. Zeyer to have provided the brand(s) of gouache she used in the demo as well as the naming the hues she used in her demo.
I have painted w gauche n it's wonderful. It can make lovely thin layers that will allow previous colors to show thu. Super on portraits.
hi from Pacific Grove, California. Great study in gouache
Gouache has a really good effect.
loving this demo. Allie is a good teacher. I learned a lot, took notes. Thanks
Glad to see you back !
This was great as I have never tried gouache before. Thank you!
I recently got the primary colors and burnt umber to try out. Need more brush time for sure
Loved this tutorial/demo. Thank you, Allie and Eric.
Beautiful work, Allie! Thank you, Allie and Eric! 🙏☮️❤️
I really enjoy using gouache.
Excellent demo❤
I have never seen this type of paint so I'm finding it interesting. Have painted watercolor , oil and acrylic. Mostly do acrylic now.
Great demo. Love to see more on gouache.
Thank you folks, very informative and fun to learn from you.
Love your style with gouache, Allie! Thanks so much for sharing your process and how you use it. I’ve been using it for years and love the medium, though I paint with it mostly on cold press illustration board. That said, it’s fun to see the techniques you use with the watercolor paper. 😄
Now a new medium to explore!
Chroma have transparent colors in their Gouache range and also mediums to add for glazing.
Love this, Allie!!! Fantastic!!!
Excellent lesson
Thank you for the great information
Oh ? Been using it for lettering, background, layering, didn’t know it is hot,😊
Looks like fun!
Pleaseeee please please bring James Gurnney to the PACE24! I'm coming and I'd just die to see him live ❤❤❤
Love this ❤
Give the artist MORE time to demo please.
Hi there from Southport North Carolina 😊
Please do another one.
Acrylic gouache cannot be reconstituted. Personally cannot see the purpose of acrylic gouache!
Right? I found out the hard way (dumb me didn’t look at the label) and ruined my work.. tough to work with for sure.
I learnt the hard way too and don’t see the point either..
Thanks Again❤
Acrylic dries darker , not oils ,
Does Ally squeeze out fresh gouache everytime or use the dry gouache in the palette?
How is gouache different from watercolors? Looks like it reacts the same way..
Greetings from the galena forest studio of Carol g.
Sweeeeet. Thanks MaaaarVellous James Engelbert Stony Brook NY
Wonderful tutorial, Eric did you mean yupo paper?
Always too late for the giveaways, but Always on time for the incredible trainings.
Gouache is great for Plein aire work.Greetings from Co Down, N.Ireland.
You can make gouache using gum arabic as a filler.
Isn’t guache sort of opaque watercolor? We use it,as kids, in school in Portugal.
Gouache is used by textile designers and colorists.
And a growing number of fine artists.
When framing a gouache painting do you need to protect with glass? Question answered, Mat & Glass.
Frame the same as watercolour under glass. I have seen people use dorland wax to waterproof it and frame without glass.
Please Check Turkish painter Fikret Mualla who has used quoache very interesting way
❤
What the UBO tablet Eric was discussing ? Where to find
It’s actually Yupo.
Is working light to dark a must ?
I’m a watercolorist, and often add light over dark. I didn’t try it til much later, though, because…rules.
Normally, though - you’ll work light to dark.
Gurney
Never tried it
