How to draw gouache

(1). What is gouache landscape painting?

Let's talk about what gouache is first. Gouache, as its name implies, needs water and of course pigments. Gouache landscape painting is to paint landscapes with gouache, and everyone who has studied painting should know it. In fact, there is not much difference between gouache and watercolor, mainly because of the different control of water. But gouache is very different from oil painting, from tools to drawing paper. If you are interested, you can check it yourself, so I won't say it here. We mainly talk about gouache landscape painting. Here are two pictures for everyone to see.

The color of the picture above is very bright, and many strokes are used.

(2). The tools used in gouache landscape painting, we won't say much about it and go directly to the picture.

The small bucket is used to hold water, which is needed when drawing. Pick some pigments with a pen and put them on the palette. If they are too dry, you can soak them in water, and then you can draw.

This is what I used when I took the art test, and I used it to sketch (draw) in other places. Let's choose between the two.

The above three kinds of pens are called in turn: brush pen, fan pen and combination pen. The above tools can be bought in Taobao, and there are many painting pigments and tools directly on Taobao.

(3) Drawing step, directly drawing.

Start writing with a small combination brush or fan pen. Beginners can use pencils, 2B, 4B, 6B, and then hook the shape you just picked up with a combination pen and a sector pen.

When laying general colors, you can use a larger combination pen, or you can use a fan pen or a brush pen.

Shaping is the hardest step. You can use different types of pens according to your choice. This step may be difficult for beginners, but it doesn't matter. No one draws well from the beginning.

The last step is to adjust the picture, which is also very important. In order to make the painting look better and the picture effect more prominent, some adjustments need to be made.

(5) Share some experiences and methods.

For beginners, this gouache landscape painting may be a little more difficult than cartoon painting and stick figure painting (personal opinion). But after painting, it is particularly beautiful, and the picture effect is very good and shocking. You can learn if you are interested. I may not know how to use the contents. If you really want to learn, you can ask me or watch teaching videos.

The above are some personal understandings and feelings about gouache landscape painting. I share them here, and of course, please give me your advice. After all, a lot of communication can be entered.
