Playing with gouache

gouache on paper

As gouache and watercolors are different, but similar, I like to play with my new gouache paints. I find them juicy and luscious. This little experiment was the last page of my small 3x5 journal. Now onto my new 8x5 journal, which will seem huge after painting in my little guy for this summer.

For a reference photo I used one from Dreama. I love her colorful style. Someday I want to take one of her online oil painting courses.  Her color palette is colorful, happy and bright. I just love it.
