Gouache


What is Gouache?

acrylic gouacheGouache is an opaque watercolor paint. Whereas transparent watercolors allow you to see the "white" of the paper below the paint, gouache can be applied in solid colors. This allows an artist to paint in layers from dark to light.

Gouache dries to a matte finish, which makes it easy to scan or reproduce electronically, since there is no glossy shine.

Acrylic Gouache

Acrylic Gouache is both a fluid acrylic and a craft acrylic. Like traditional gouache, it is opaque and dries to a matte finish. Unlike traditional gouache, it uses an acrylic polymer binder that is water resistant when dry. Like craft acrylics, it adheres well to many surfaces. This makes it a favorite in decorative and folk art techniques.
