gouache

Good news day

I'm working on a series of childhood stuffed animals versus child monsters (i.e. the safety of home vs the real world and its bullies). I haven't done the monsters yet, but here are the stuffed animals. I drew them from memory as opposed to referencing what Cheer Bear and Rainbow Brite's dog looked like. I looked after. I didn't get them quite right. That's OK; I think the wonkiness adds to the charm. These are drawn in reverse for a woodcut effect, then scanned and printed and gone over with gouache and watercolor.

This was a quick little painting/drawing in my sketchbook I did after seeing a friend’s photo on Instagram.

Yes, continuing with gouache paint set and still Stranger Things surfaces.

Just because, experimenting with new gouache paint set and I so happen to like Stranger Things.

This one is my " other style " oddly I have two different styles of art , sometimes I feel very sci fi / fantasy , and other times I feel more like drawing animals . I've noticed that my style changes depending on which mood I'm in . It's been a while since I did any of these , this one is from a couple years ago .

How do i paint stone walls with a pallette without grey? I tried some different alternatives, i hope to get used these later.

Midnight painting because i cant sleep. I hope to get the whole picture done before the weekend, but im not a fast painter, so heres the first corner.

I got inspiration from my first gouache painting. After a few minutes of research on Pinterest, I got the Eureka Moment! "Hmm... Maybe I should draw the twisted tree from my painting, which will be full of stars on its branch?" And here it is - the final look. I like it!

gouache and pencil colors

This was a gift for a special colleague who had already worked at my school for more than 20 years. I painted her with gouache and especially her blond hair gave me a headache. I‘ve never worked with this paint before. In the background I used special paper, charcoal and acrylic markers. Inside the card is a poem about her.

Wine done with gouache

Smile! Painted with gelly gouache, Posca paint pens and pencil crayons. There is a tiny bit of white gel pen as well...

I needed some positive vibes, so I painted a moth with a day wing and a night wing. Gouache on watercolour paper.
