Dynamic Watercolors and Gouache

Members can pop their paintings with transparent watercolors and opaque gouache (watercolors) on toned paper. Many well-known artists use this combination of paint to enhance their work: Turner, Sargent, and Homer. Members will learn how to layer transparency and opaque color, feel the freedom of using opaque white and being able to go back and forth from light to dark or dark to light. Bergstrom’s six tubes of paint will be used with the addition of gouache colors or just white gouache paint to mix with to create opaque colors.
