For the longest time I’ve only painted with gouache in liquid form, fresh from the tube or from my airtight palette (which keeps it in liquid form indefinitely). Today I'm sharing my recent experiments with using gouache dried in my watercolor palettes. I'll talk about the pros and cons, show you my palette setup, discuss the different brands and show swatches and test paintings. I'll post an update in the future with how things are going.
