Sharing this as my first time to use gouache on canvas and I'm so happy with the result! If watercolor and acrylic had a a child, it would be gouache. It's not as popular as watercolor but I love working with it especially that I've always had a love/hate relationship with acrylic. I want to use it more often!
This piece is a gift for Mary Lauren's first birthday. What better way to celebrate life than with flowers!
By the way, I also tried it on black painted wood. Needed to reapply another coat to keep it opaque. But overall it's great. I feel my brush "freer" with gouache.
