In purge mode, ripping through my studio space this week (which BTW, you can see some outakes HERE and HERE and HERE) I found my tubes of GOUACHE paint. These yummylicious tubes of watercolor goodness are watercolors that wanna be paint. FLUID like watercolor, but OPAQUE like paint. I’ve got some ideas. I can’t wait to test drive.
So, I’m waiting for the Gouache to dry in it’s new palette. I’m just not a carry all the tubes around kind of girl. It’s just not going to happen. Making the palette was simple. Squeeze lots of color in the wells, and… here’s the tricky, sticky wicket part, WAIT for it to dry. About 24-48 hours. WAIT and then WAIT some more. Then, once dry, I’m going to stick my thumb in each little well and make a dent for water.
Did I mention that I’m still WAITING? Ha! Happy Sunday! Yep, I’m still waiting.
More studio pics to share this coming week!
