Here’s a quick guide to share with students on the differences between watercolour and gouache—two fantastic paints with unique qualities! ✨ Watercolour is transparent, meaning it lets light shine through the colours. It’s great for soft washes and layering, making it perfect for creating gentle, delicate effects. 🎨 Gouache is more opaque, so it covers paper with solid, vibrant colours. This makes it ideal for bold shapes, sharp details, and layering without seeing through to the bottom layers.
