    I bought some gouache colours some weeks ago to celebrate that I passed my law exam. This is something I really enjoyed, and even if watercolour has been my go to, I have now found a new love (, the only struggle I had was making the brush strokes, because my kitten thought the brushes were her new play things). / Scandinavian

    Gouache Rocks! It makes it so much easier than having to mask like daisies flowers in a dark background you can just paint on the daisies are the lighter color flowers without having to go through all that masking process gouache is amazing I just love the actual depth of the color it's just amazing and so much fun to work with❤

Could you consider a tutorial on how to suggest shapes/ or a technique that means you don't have to do that, I guess a more illustrative style? 🙏 I also have trouble with leaf shapes and petal shapes, although your sunflowers tutorial was awesome in that sense.
