LANDSCAPE SKETCHING with GOUACHE 

PLEASE NOTE: Official signup is through our website: Portland Art Guild
3-session series: $60 for PAG Members and $120/nonmembers.
Gouache is an exciting opaque and water-soluble medium used for both color sketches and finished paintings. The bold and vivid color of gouache work well for painting landscapes in the studio or plein air. Students will learn basic gouache techniques and color-mixing during the start of this three-week workshop. Practical tips for sketching your composition and simplifying complex scenes will be demonstrated by creating an initial value study. Students will create small colorful gouache landscape sketches while learning to build their landscape layer by layer: from blocking in the big shapes to adding those crucial details that make your painting pop.
