painting a gouache landscape | studio day as an art student

Today I was feeling motivated to break out the acrylic gouache paints and create a landscape painting. As a full time art student, I try to break up my week with fun projects like this. There’s no pressure to make something perfect or complete an assignment, I just want to have a bit of fun.

I love the colored pencils at the end! They add so much texture!

I'm watching gouache videos while I wait for the paints I just ordered. Really enjoyed watching your process. I liked the way you covered the entire paper with the yellow that set the light tone for the whole. Your cornfield was my favorite part. Thank you for posting.
