Would you like to get a better handle on all of the colors of one type of supply in your stash?

We'll cut swatch cards from sturdy paper, i.e. watercolor paper, punch holes in the cards, and start swatching!

Abstract Landscape in Gouache
Gouache is opaque watercolor that is often used by illustrators due to its matte finish.
Let's work on creating simple, abstract paintings with a landscape feel!
As a bonus, I'll be sharing how you can get a handmade paper look by tearing your paper down to size, using a butter knife.
Suggested Supplies:
- Gouache paints, such as Holbein, Daniel Smith, Winsor & Newton, etc.
- Size 6 long round brush-Princeton Velvetouch is my favorite
- Additional brushes
- Watercolor paper (140 lb.-9x12 inches)
- Bone folder and butter knife for cutting paper
- Ceramic plate/palette (optional)
- Water jars
- Paper towels/rag
