Creative Gouache presents beginner tutorials for working with gouache—transparent watercolor’s opaque sister—showing how to paint bright, bold, modern effects, florals, and motifs, and combine it with other mediums.
Take your art in a bold new direction—go gouache! In Creative Gouache, artist Ruth Wilshaw shares her step-by-step techniques for creating brilliantly vibrant effects with this easy-to-master medium, a perfect companion for transparent watercolor.

In this comprehensive guide to gouache, you’ll:

  • Discover fun gouache techniques, such as adding texture and painting gradients and blends.
  • Learn how to incorporate other mediums with gouache, including paint pens, colored pencil, and watercolor.
  • Use what you learn to create inspiring projects such as dimensional artwork, clay décor pieces, and cheerful banners.
