    Gouache Portraits

    Gouache Portraits

    Good to be back at portrait painting after semi retiring a few years ago when I realised oil fumes were affecting me badly. Never thought portraiture would be possible with gouache but that seems to be the case. #expressionist #pencildrawing #paper #contemporaryart #gouache

    Gouache

    Gouache

    "Self Portrait " work in progress - Gouache on paper - I am still exploring the posibilities of Gouache. It's an interesting medium because you can layer the paint and achieve all sorts of interesting effects. It's also one of the few mediums that doesn't affect my health negatively. I really sufffer from the fumes from oil paint. I tried papinting in a mask but it was no good. Yes, I have tried acrylic but I had a reaction with that too.
