Experimenting with Gouache (from an oil painter’s perspective)

 

This intensive workshop will cover the basics of working in the Gouache medium as well as delve into its ability to facilitate experimentation and perhaps bring a fresh approach to your other favorite painting mediums.

Because gouache is a simple water based medium and very quick drying, it is great for trying out ideas and painting techniques that would be more difficult and time consuming in an oil painting medium.

Plus, it’s just dammed fun to paint with.

 

The workshop will consist of demonstrations on Jon’s personal approach to the medium as well as lots of class time and encouragement to experiment with your own techniques, subjects and ideas.

 

Working from both still life subject and/or photo references is encouraged.
