Acrylic Gouache

Discover a new way to think about using acrylic paints while you learn about the various mediums and additives that you can use with acrylic paint to expand your creative potential.

Gouache pronounced 'gwash', is an amazingly versatile water-soluble, water-based painting medium. It has a very similar pigment and binder structure to watercolor paint; a finely ground pigment with a Gum Arabic binder. However, Gouache paint contains opacifiers such as chalk/white pigment which gives the paint a matte and more velvety opaque finish once dried.
