Gouache, mon amour!

Getting the best out of an ultimate watercolour
When we
hear “watercolour”, we often think of washy landscapes painted with plenty
of water. But there is another multifaceted technique called “opaque
watercolour” or gouache which often remains forgotten. A pity, because
gouache has probably been the most popular technique for illustration and
small-scale painting for several centuries. Just think of Albrecht Dürer's
hare, poster and magazine illustrations in the 20th century or the picture
books of recent times.
Gouache can
be used transparent (similar to watercolours) or opaque (like oil
or acrylic paints). In addition, gouache remains water-soluble even
after drying, so that parts of a picture can be changed. In this workshop we
will systematically go through wide-ranging techniques of gouache and see which
fit your particular style and temperament. You will benefit from Aljoscha's
experience as a renowned illustrator and gouache expert.
In addition to
practical work on amusing exercises Aljoscha Blau will demonstrate his original
gouache illustrations and show his techniques. He recently wrote the reference
book “Rediscovering Gouache. A new approach to a Versatile Technique for
Contemporary Artists and Illustrators”, which has been translated into six
languages since 2020.
This
workshop is suitable for beginners with basic drawing skills and for advanced
students.
