I have completed this little painting I started with watercolour.
I decided to redo it with gouache.
I am very happy with the medium.
This  little landscape is a corner where I walk almost everyday …
The bridle way in Seabrook, Hythe Kent in Autumn…

Gouache

I was educated in France where children had to come to school with their own tin of gouache.
i did love their colours and the smell… I felt it was magic!
I have never forgotten being 8 years old and the teacher asking us to paint an apple… luckily mine was red… the next lesson was Autumn leaves…
I was in my element … the time flew by and I was gutted when I had to pack…

so school children in France knew how to handle gouache.
Watercolour or Aquarelle were either rare or reserved to real artists and so expensive …
A few years ago I tried some gouache… they were called designer gouache… I did not like them. They were too heavy. The colours too garish. 

A few days ago I did some research and found these tubes of gouache for £28.00 on amazon
​

Royal Talens… I love them… They are fresh and thin…
There are enough complimentary colours to create something good…
Let see
I think I will combine watercolour and gouache.
I will lay the foundation of a painting in Watercolour and come back with the gouache.
so, watch this space 😀
