So.... My first time working with gouache! It was cool, I actually enjoyed this method. The opaque quality of gouache is very forgiving and allows you to kind of "re-do" certain areas. I was a little worried about the color scheme but I think the tertiary colors worked out well. To finish off the piece I would have like to add in the rocks of the water but I still think it's successful without them. I also am very proud of how the face turned out, I still look like me!! The downside is gouache allows you to work and re-work the piece, I would have kept going if I didn't have to have it done, it's very easy to over-do it and not know when to quit. Looking forward to more...
