@@JaredCullum I totally agree. Sometimes I pretend I'm making a tutorial or something in order to learn a concept.

The best take-away from this, for me, was your comment in the beginning, "gouache works best when it sits on top of other gouache." Couldn't agree more and when I used to airbrush gouache, the standard set up was always to spray down a full layer before going into the final piece. Airbrushing straight onto board usually resulted in beading. Great video, as always, my friend! :)

@@JaredCullum yeah, for most of my early career, I worked exclusively in ink and gouache with airbrush. It was fantastic for doing photo retouching (before Photoshop), because I could get really fine details with a Paasche Turbo brush using gouache, without the paint beading up with each layer. It was so awesome, but it was also a ton of work to clean those airbrushes and fight with air/liquid in the compressor lines. lol! Ah the memories! :)

Hey Jared! I really love your videos, they are so interesting and a good tool to learn for me. Im a 17 yo artist and i just picked up gouache recently, with watercolor being my main medium i used before. Do you have any recommendations for beginners for what is important for gouache? Is it a good idea to start painting portraits? (Im so sorry for my english, im german lol)

@JaredCullum

that emo vampire kid hi! It’s so cool you’re getting started with gouache. I think the most important thing to focus on is increasing your drafting skills and learning to love painting with it. Don’t worry about how it looks. It will take some time to get used to the way gouache goes down. Since coming from watercolor- a good way to get into it is so 50% of a sketch with watercolor and paint gouache on top. I recommend still life’s of objects around your house and outside. Portraits are very difficult and can be tough but they will help you get better. If you do small still life sketches of objects- kitchen equipment, food, childhood toys, rooms, lamps- they help you to see and convey light and value which will translate to landscapes and portraiture in the long run. Good luck! I’m always here if you have questions! :)

Veasey Jackson hi Veasey! Absolutely! I also look for acrylic demos... so for gouache- Lena Rivo is one of my favorites. Of course gurney and then there is Peter Chan or pixelpchan. On Instagram, you can find heather Martin who does demos on there and mike Hernandez who is awesome. Tad Retz does gouache and you can pay some money for his acrylic and gouache demos he does. If I think of more I’ll come back here and post them.

Can you recommend books on identifying colour, or just great books which talk about colours in general, in the context of painting?

Sneha Kandoi sure! James Gurneys color and light, Charlie’s Reid, paint what you see and most importantly going to the library and getting the large print books of master painters like Andrew Wyeth, Sargent, Homer and others and doing small study-copies in a sketchbook. That helps a ton. I recommend focusing on value, though. If you get strong with value the color will come naturally. Value is what holds it together though.

Jared, do you use the silver black velvet for backgrounds only or for more detail work? I asked because I feel gouache is a bit rough in natural hair. (silver black velvet being a mix) Edit: Btw do you recommend any book or tutorial to better understand values, light and shadows? I find it extremely challenging.

Caro S. Ooh- books! James gurneys color and light. Also Charles Reid paint what you see. Those were a huge help to me. If you just take some time or devote a specific sketchbook to working in black and white only for a bit it will click together for you fast. It just takes some time working in only black and white and you start to see it. If you have a smart phone- feel free to convert photos for a while for practice.

May sound a bit counter-intuitive but if you have photoshop or a similar digital paint program, I would recommend doing master studies using a hard round brush only so you're essentially forced to carve out shapes and carefully choose values (not colour picking from the original though). I'm currently subscribed to John Burton's course on schoolism and he demonstrates this but I'm sure someone somewhere on youtube does something similar. I guess what this does is create a sort of posterised version of the painting using a limited set of values (depending how long you want to spend on it) because there's no blending and you need to make the shapes in such a way so that the eye reads it as a cohesive image. Since I've done a bunch of these, I'm starting to see things more as a collection of abstract shapes of differing values/colours that fit together to form an image. Plus, there's no real stress doing them since it's all digital and you can paint over and revise as much as you like. In fairness, since I started this practice, I've only tried one watercolour/gouache plein-air in combat conditions but it worked out quite well (not quite to the standards of a pro like Jared mind you) but, IDK, the approach somehow took away that struggle of trying to paint specific objects and I enjoyed the process much more.
