Watts Atelier – Gouache Phase I

In this phase Jeff Watts introduces you to his second favorite medium after oil: gouache. He will demonstrate this medium using a traditional approach that is rarely taught in contemporary art schools. It will be instrumental to your future growth.

Jeff refers to this technique as “tiling”, but you can think of it as shape recognition painting. This technique emphasizes turning form with deliberate “tiles” placed next to one another to create a mosaic effect. This helps cultivate a greater sense of design and will make for clearer, more deliberate color notes in all of your paintings. One of the greatest qualities of gouache is its ability to be re-activated after it is dry to the touch. No other medium except digital allows for this sort of flexibility. We will be executing two black and white and two Zorn palette paintings, for a total of four painting in this phase. Enjoy.
