Taught by CFA Faculty member, John Wellington. John has often referred to his favorite color sketch medium as "watercolor for those artists that make mistakes". Gouache, unlike watercolor, allows for buildup of white and light colors with the ability to work on colored and toned papers. In this way, the application process is similar to oil paint, but with a much less toxic medium. This six week class will focus on working from the model online, painting both quick and longer poses each week, along with demos and a weekly sharing of our work. There will be full review of materials on week one.
Working in gouache offers artists a great opportunity to work quickly in color, correct and adjust drawing, value and color, in an easy to use medium.
