I started this painting because I wanted to try gouache one more time but the quality of the paint I have was just awful. So I had to switch to this water color pack I had since I was a like seven, which surprisingly was much better. I made a few copies of the sketch to try the coloring first because I didn’t want to ruin it with paint. I also used colored inks and pencils to go over the lines.
I got that lousy gouache paint because I wasn’t ready to commit to traditional painting, but now I’m ready. let’s get married paints <3 I’ve actually been eyeing Holbein acryla gouache paint for a while but let’s see if they ship to the middle of nowhere :’)
