Introduction to Gouache


  • New Hartford Artisans Guild 37 Greenwoods Road New Hartford, CT, 06057 United States (map)

Discover the bold, velvety world of gouache in this beginner-friendly class. We’ll explore the unique qualities of this versatile paint—how it combines the opacity of acrylic with the reworkable nature of watercolor. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn color mixing, layering techniques, and how to control water-to-paint ratios for vibrant, matte finishes. We’ll work through small practice pieces before creating a final artwork you can take home. Whether you’re brand-new to painting or looking to expand your creative toolkit, this class will give you the confidence to make gouache your new favorite medium. All materials provided.
