Painting landscapes should be fun! That's why I'm doing this series. I want to share my strategies for painting my favorite places with gouache. It's a perfect medium to take with you when you travel and capture your world.

In Episode 1 I will share my process for painting this Scotland mountain scene while I discuss the following things:

  • Controlling values
  • Adding mist
  • Working in layers
  • Different brush strokes

This scene is great practice for your gouache journey and I hope it will inspire you to paint landscapes!

About This Series

Gouache Landscapes is a series of "bite size" classes (all under an hour - Episode 1 is a bit shorter than usual) that each demonstrate a variety of techniques and strategies for getting the most out of gouache. There is no specific upload schedule, but my plan is to release them every 2-3 weeks. Episode 1 is free!

  • Episode 1 - Misty Mountains
  • Episode 2 - Autumn Forests
  • Episode 3 - Waterfall
  • Episode 4 - Beach
