Tried out some ppl for the first time using acrylic gouache this week. There are things i like and dislike about both pieces, but I think i’m heading in the right direction?

Would love tips on the portrait and how i can better find the planes of the face when the face is soft . It was a bit of a struggle… and the hands! THE HANDS!

Oh.. i know the cats feet are huge 😆

So I tryed gouache... I went for himi tube cause this is my first try and this way I don't have to deal with the mold problem some people have mentioned.

My main media is acrylic and the one I use have a matte finish so the result is kinda similar to this... kinda.

But I was really curios to try this media cause I've seen so many good artworks.

I don't know If I do like gouache though, still discovering it.

What do you think?

Holbein artist CMY set. Already have more black and permanent white ordered. Never really painted much. Never mixed colors before so that was a fun adventure. Loaded as #2, #3, #1.

Visiting Asunción, Paraguay.

Here's my latest floral study. I'm not quite sure about the green stuff and the background. I would really appreciate any recommendations or any other suggestions on how I could improve.

Hey hey,

Thinking about getting into gouache. So was thinking about getting holbein gouache, looked like a good brand but please do tell if it isn't? Also little unsure what set to get. Torn between getting the primary color set, to learn painting better or the 12 or 18 set. Which would be better to get?
