How To Paint A Flower Field Using Watercolour And Gouache

[@jannissen8146]

I love the combo of watercolor and gouache! I hope you enjoyed painting this as much as I enjoyed watching!

[@patricialong2717]

I would say you're done when you're happy with it! I think it's beautiful!

[@patricianeville464]

Love, love, love this tutorial. I too just got some gouache and feel this is the tutorial to do both watercolor and gouache. Love the flower landscape. Please do more landscapes of the nature.

[@chantalpelletier-mailman8928]

Omg I just started gouache!! This is great because I got gouaches just to be able to play with them and watercolors. I hope you make more videos with gouaches. Have a great day and thank you for your beautiful videos!

[@Linda-qq5mg]

This is such a happy looking painting! Thank you Emma.

[@Gayatri_Deshpande]

Hey.. I started with watercolours very recently - mostly to deal with work stress. Watching your videos is super helpful. I always get to learn so much. Thank you so much! Stay blessed.

[@carolberres5528]

This is beautiful and so much fun to watch. I’m a newbie to watercoloring. The gouache looks like fun!

[@roxannerosecrans4441]

Love the painting 🎨 and your narrative! Thank you Emma 😘

[@dianedial4262]

I think you pulled this off very well. Don't give up because the combo of watercolour and gouache turned out very well!! Let's try some more soon.

[@MrFabriciusalmeida]

All of your gouache paintings I’ve seen so far, I think you’ve done great!

[@vanessaboman8143]

So pretty, you did this so effortlessly! It was such a pleasure to watch you do this, thank you.

[@yayacuculis7929]

Love this painting!

[@Galbereth]

That's beautiful, Emma 😍

[@chrissyplanteater2892]

Love a combo I sometimes use a posca pen as well for details 👍

[@patriciamcpherson4667]

It's very pretty. Love the gouache. I hope do more videos on how to use it.

[@dakotascottart]

Lovely, I like that you ended up using the gouache.

[@flowing_through_life]

It’s so beautiful. I would love to try gouache soon.

[@suebutzer8394]

Very, very cheerful! Love all the colors!

[@Love2Create62]

I love it, it turned out great! I can't believe that's your first time trying to paint that! I think I will try and do this, although without gouache. Hopefully using darker/thicker watercolor will also work. I hope your little one is feeling better and that you and Matt are getting some rest!

[@patsmith6900]

So pretty Emma! You continue to inspire. Love your videos.

[@darcygraceswatercolorstudi4220]

So beautiful! I absolutely love it!

[@sandraworrall-hart3840]

Like other people here I have been thinking about using gouache with watercolours too. It was interesting to see you use the jelly gouache. I have seen it once before and it looks a nice consistency. Really lovely painting. Thank you.

[@cindyp.9030]

Love the painting, I have never tried gouache, I had no idea what it was even. The texture of it reminds me of a soft bodied acrylic paint like FolkArt. Maybe I could try using that with the watercolor and see how it goes. Thank you for the video.

[@melw7450]

so pretty

[@kraftygirl46]

Oh my goodness, this is beautiful!! Definitely going to attempt this 😊

[@Hangland29]

Turned out great!! Thanks for sharing

[@lauried.6831]

I love this painting and the various techniques you used. So beautiful. 🎨🖌🌸🌺

[@cathyfeagley873]

Very cool. I like it.

[@annieh6021]

Could I add a little white to a watercolour colour to create an opaqueness do you think?? I’m on a budget, there’s a white in my set of tube watercolours which I think would work and I’m not keen on buying more media.

[@deborahrodney6562]

Yes you can do that. White gouache added to watercolor makes them more opaque and lighter. It’s a great technique. I love to combine watercolor and gouache in a painting. First layers; watercolor. Top layers or accents; gouache. Gouache is wonderful when you get the hang of it. It allows you to cover up mistakes and I find it so much easier than watercolor.

[@shelleyramsey9949]

Loved it. Can’t wait to try it

[@shazlawrence8189]

So beautiful

[@longwaytotipperary]

Love This!!!!

[@JuliesOliveTree]

Very pretty!

[@CarolM98632]

Love this. Thank you.

[@debbievangurp8166]

This picture is totally gorgeous. Now I’m off to give it a bit of a try…..

[@RadishandRoux]

Gorgeous!!

[@amandastratton8242]

A really cheerful painting Emma Thank you xxx I always feel like Gouache reminds me of poster paints (sorry Gouache!) it has a similar cosistancy x

[@pookys1gal]

Beautiful

[@itschelli983]

So spring and summery. I loved it. How do you know when you’re done? Girl I never know the answer to that one 😂

[@deborahsteele4349]

Perfect thank you

[@joannarutkowska9990]

So fantastic

[@negareliinart5200]

Beautiful 😍

[@katiekrause]

Omg you sound like me when you paint something and then say I don’t know or maybe not 😂

[@K.ART_vlog]

nice, nice 😍

[@Sundies_Art]

Very pretty. You did a great job!! Thanks for sharing your struggles, I am not a fan of gouache, but it might just be I'm not used to using it..practice, practice. Sara Burns has some real good videos on painting with gouache...

[@carolinejones3231]

I wonder do you speed up the filming at all, or are your brush strokes really that quick? It is beautiful and I will be trying it later today.

[@margaretdillinger5090]

How’s that lil one doing? Carolina blue sky. Lol. Even experienced painters have to learn new types of paint. I have Gouache but never learned the process. I’m loving this painting.

[@TalaiRain]

Sarah Burns Studio has some good gouache tutorials :)

[@elizabethhumphrey9055]

I recommend watching Ruth Wilshaw, she is amazing with gouache

[@prettyblimp]

love the whole painting! painting gouche seems tricky, probably about as easy from watercolour to pastels...to acrylic!! See me run from that! How's baby and Noah? best wishes xx

[@joannnicol346]

So pretty, just needs a tiny butterfly flitting from flower to flower, lol.

[@patriciamcpherson4667]

I had the same problem. It's hard when you're used to using watercolors.

[@wendychampness1901]

I just happened to have bought some gouache recently. But I haven’t used it yet because I don’t know what brushes to use. You said that you didn’t want to use your good watercolor brushes. Will the gouache damage the watercolor brushes? Thanks 🙏

[@janc734]

Gouache is heavier than watercolor so you need a stiffer brush. My watercolor brushes are too soft for my gouache plus they weren't cheap so reserve them for just watercolor. I bought some Princeton Snap brushes for my gouache which are inexpensive and work well with gouache and can be used for watercolor as well when you want a snappier brush.

[@wendychampness1901]

@@janc734 Thanks for your tip🙏

[@lisaspears8974]

Ditch the himi gouache and stay with w&n or better yet if u can get some holbein it's heavenly. It goes on so smoth and vibrant with very little pigment needed. Himi is a job to use and every color needs white to stay Opaque and then u need water and it's just a balancing act that can't be done as a beginner. Slow down on your layer thickness. Also with himi the underlayers lreactivate and mix the second u add the next layer. You gotta not fiddle with the upper layers, dry underneath on not. The pro brands stay intact way better.

[@ginamariegavin450]

How is Miles doing ?I love the painting I with I could do it but I don't have any gouache

[@jwall6006]

The lack of confidence makes perfect sense to me. I’ve tried gouache a few times. All of which have been disastrous. My problem may be too much water. I hadn’t thought of that. I know that my acrylic brushes that I’ve abused😳, seem to work better.

[@cazhowe737]

Professional quality gouache covers better so it’s not you 🥰
