What is Gouache Paint?
Gouache is similar to watercolor paints with high opacity and coverage, dries quickly and produces a smooth finish and has an opaqueness that makes it ideal for blending, glazing, and creating drawings with shades of color. Gouache is water-soluble and can be reactivated with water even after it has dried, composed of pigment, water and gum arabic and is a mixture of opaque body color and water that works well on paper, fabric, wood, glass and many other surfaces. It also has a creamy consistency that allows for quick transitions between colors, making it a good choice for beginners as well as more experienced artists.
Where did the Term Gouache Come From? The term "gouache" comes from the Italian word "guazzo" referring to paintings using this opaque method. Gouache is translucent when wet, but dries to a completely opaque state.
See our article and resource for: Acrylic Paint vs. Gouache: What’s the Difference?
What Do You Use to Seal Gouache Paint?
To seal a painting done with gouache first clean the surface to keep the paint from sinking into any existing stains or residue and can be sealed with a spray varnish (or fixative) for permanent adhesion to the surface upon which it has been applied. Once you have finished painting, treat your work with a sealant and allow to dry before framing.
NOTE: Varnish will affect the depth, darkness and finish. If want to retouch the painting again at some point in the future the varnish will not come off.
