Middlebury Studio School

The purpose of this class is to develop a love and appreciation for the medium of Gouache and will also incorporate the use of watercolors. Students will learn the fundamentals and examine the strengths and limitations of gouache through a study of the basic techniques employed when using the medium. A new technique will be explored in depth each class while students paint a dynamic and fun piece of artwork using that technique! We will also learn a little about the history of the medium and how it can be used with other mediums. Each session is designed to build on the previous, in addition to going over, and recapping basic Gouache techniques students will explore new uses for Gouache such as how to incorporate an underdrawing. The class will also cover the appeal of the Gouache and watercolor for illustrators and fine artists alike! All level/Adult. Materials included.
