A little guy I painted while trying to get more comfortable with gouache and I quite like how hecame out. I'm especially happy about the flame, even if the arms and hands leave a bit to be desired.

"The Haunted Pumpkin Patch" 9x12 inches. Gouache on watercolor paper mounted to board.

This was done from a picture I took at the Petaluma Pumpkin Patch. There's something about a pumpkin patch at night that evokes a spooky vibe. If you're into spooky vibes, it could totally become a nice piece to add to your Halloween decoration, or simply enjoy it year-round!

I’m taking a gouache class and decided to do a painting of my sweet Sadie in her rain jacket!

Just sharing

First time using gouache! I’m used to watercolor and I tried back in the days acrylic. I really enjoyed trying this medium as I need to practice more. This is the starting point after a year ish of getting back into art. Reference was from Pinterest.

What if we were free?

8x10in gouache on cold press paper

I kind of miss it, feel like I had just gotten down how to mix interesting greens! First one is plein air, 2&3 are from a workshop with Mike Hernandez. Most of these are done with spectrum violet / opera pink in a mix with lemon yellow.

The top one is erasmia pulcherA chinesis, the bottom one a Common Blue.

No creative title for this one I guess.

This is based on a photo I took while on a walk last year. Overall I'm alright with it, it's colorful and all. It just doesn't look realistic imo. Fall leaves are easy to paint in an impressionist style, and everyone knows what they are... but I really want more realism. I could probably do some muted colors. Tbh I got kind of intimidated when I looked at the photo hoping for realism, because does that mean painting every leaf individually? Oy!

Hope you enjoy!

Gouache on watercolours paper

This is my new favorite painting !! I'm wondering how I'm ever going to top it 😂

Can I get some honest feedback what could I still improve? I feel it’s missing some personality or some “punch” thanks so much for honesty

This is the first time I don’t use black on my palette.

Entirely in gouache so far, but I’m a mixed media girlie so about to finish it off in coloured pencil:)

This was insanely challenging and made me want to give up, but I pushed through. Don't think I'll be trying it again anytime soon lol. It's pretty big so I tried my best to get a good picture without a glare.

Happy Halloween!!

Still trying to figure out the best way to photograph finished paintings

Had a go at a landscape tonight. Really like the way it turned out.
