Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been reaching for the gouache paints. It started somewhat unintentionally when I decided to paint a nighttime snowy sky. At first I thought, I thought I had to keep the snow areas white (paper), so I was leaving white circles as I painted the black sky. Which was tedious! I was so happy when I started to flick white gouache paint onto the black and it was much more opaque than I was expecting.
Flicking paint is one of my favorite things. 🙂

After that, I continued with this dark snowy sky in several of my paintings.
I started playing with gouache paints back in June. See the June posting, and learn more about gouache paints here.
