my mom is a master painter, but I have touched a paintbrush once in my life. it seems pretty fun, might watch some more videos first

Thank you! Just subscribed! Do you ever varnish your works and frame them without glass?

Hey i have to make a menu card which sheet would u prefer ? Uum watercolour cold pressed 300gsm or which one . What is brazillian sheet

These are all fabulous lessons! My favourite was the teapots and the red tablecloth ❤

I have heard that this shine is a general problem with Mijello watercolor as well. I have never tried it so I cannot tell, but I have to wonder whether this is something to do with what/how much medium they use. I keep wishing that Qor made gouache.

Great video

The guy knows you made his potrait?

Beautiful! You really captured it. I have not even tried this yet. I really enjoy your videos!

I like it for illustration...they are super bright, more than acrylic gouache

Amazing video!!!! So beautiful work!

What I love about a good gouache is the velvety matte finish. A shine is a huge no for me. Da Vinci has that issue as well when out of the tube. Strangely enough, the shine isn't present when it is panned and I love using it in my travel palette. It doesn't crack as well so it's great as long as you stick to pans.

what a wonderful video, absolutely inspired to start my journey in trying to learn painting reflections.

I love mijello watercolors and when i started in gouache, i bought mijello gouache. It seems to be almost the same as their watercolor, shich isn't what you want in gouache. Now i just use Holbein.

Mam, What can i go with...😢huhu (48 colours) acrylic or Monte marte (48 colours). Can u pls help me out??

what did i blink and miss it a whole tutorial😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

Thank you

🌻Enjoy your videos so much Cecile, you do an excellent job with sharing insights and knowledge!🌻Lovely lovely artwork!!

It's like a acrylic gouache? I don't try acrylic gouache, and I don't want it...if someone can compare them, it will be fantastic! Because as same as Cecile...it's weird that they have shine! So, I think it's something on the binder perhaps?

Thank you for your review. I discovered gouache for myself but i heard that it doesn't make sense to invest much since it's not conserved well. For my student's work i buy the cheapest one, like i buy primary colors + white + umbra in big bottles for USD 2.75 at Hobby Lobby. Does it make sense to get something better?

Gouache: I guess that what the Europeans call a man’s “you know what”.😉

Ohhh, like peanut butter when the oils flow to the top

Fantastic idea....🤩🎨🎨👏👏👏

I’ve thought of setting the tube on a dental investment vibrator table (used to make dental molds to shake out bubbles. ) it might make a good tube stirrer through the vibration. Unfortunately I gave mine to my sister because we use it to make chocolate. A sonic jewelry cleaner might also work to help stir the paint inside the tube. I’m going to try that.

Hi, could you explain what's difference between gouache and acrylic gouache?

Downside: you gotta be super patient! You need to wait for each layer to dry before putting any more layers, even more so then other mediums thats for sure. Just a little bit of wetness and the colours bleed into eachother like mad!

I love your channel and plan on taking more courses.

Do you recommend this or Windsor newton designer for a beginner?

I recognize so many pictures from doing my own sketchbook haha My favorite is the pastries :)

Thank you for the information. I am new to gouache so need all of the help I can get! I will steer clear of this paint because I too do not want shiny gouache.

Wish I had seen this before I bought the big set.Ido not like the shine on the paintings I have done with it.Thanks

This is absolutely beautiful 😍❤️

I love your work! How long does it take you to finish a page? How do you make time on vacation for drawing?

Thanks for this video, Cecile! It's helpful to see you use the paint already on your palette. I'm always tempted to just wash it all away. As for the gouache -- I can't stand shininess. What's worse that the finish is uneven -- it's matte here and glossy there. One of the lovely things about gouache is its matte finish. I'd run from that stuff as fast as I could!

If it weren't sometimes shiny and sometimes not, I would be happier with it. It's the inconsistency of the shininess that bothers me the most.

This is real talent and this needs more recognizarion nowadays people just move thier face and eyes and get millions of likes but this is real talent and THIS truly needs billions of likes

Strange! I think at that point I would probably just use it as watercolor :-(

That is really weird

Lovely painting. Pity you don’t like the shine, but I get it. Not the result you were anticipating. If I could paint like you I’d be happy as Larry. Thank you for your videos. Cheers

I really want to try this brand 😍 I’m not bother of the shine, but it reactives with water right? I bought a Russian brand of gouache and it ended up being acryla gouache but i didn’t know 😢, I did a dry gouache palette, wait for few days to try because I was planning to went out to do some plein air and you can imagine the result 😅 I realized at that moment that wasn’t regular gouache 😂😂😂

Mi piace molto guardarti dipingere! Sono una dilettante, dipingo solo negli sketchbook, quindi non mi dà fastidio la finitura lucida. Ho poca esperienza . ❤😊👍

Acrylic gouache enters the chat

Right! 👍🏻 Are there colours that are usually less opaque than others?

I thought (because someone here at yt said so) that the mijello platinum gouache is supposed to work in pans without crackling. That made me want to try them someday. But with the shine or sheen, no thanks. It seems even more shiney than the gansai tambi watercolors. Thank you very much for the clip. Very interesting. 🙂

I guess it's preference

Yes I do not like the shiny at all

I actually think this is exactly the difference between "gouache" and "opaque watercolor", one being matte and the other one not. If you try to apply watercolor thickly, you'll get the same shiny finish - I think that's just a natural property of gum arabic.

I am not bothered with the shine, but I do like the matt finish so much more, so I understand you

Sometimes you need a second layer

I’ve started painting with gouache just to give it a try. I spend my winters in Mexico and no longer wanted to take all my oil supplies. I haven’t had a problem and quite happy with the results. Since I’d never tried it before I went through the process of making a rather large colour wheel 😂. I prefer it over water colours, I’ve been painting with oils since 1962. Unbelievable I know. Love the knowledge you share, thank you from my heart.
