AQUAPASTO Watercolour and gouache medium | Introduction and Techniques
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- I absolutely love aquapasto watercolour medium and have used it in many of my demonstrations. Here I do a complete run through of what it is, how I use it and why I like to use it. I also compare it with pure gouache and show how it can also be used with gouache. It is wonderful for creating texture and marks within your watercolour and gouache paintings. It was invented in the 19th century so even though, in my opinion it helps if you like a ‘contemporary’ look to your work it certainly is not a new medium!. I show clips from some of my demonstrations using it with watercolour and you can see the links to these videos and more below.

Thank you for doing such a well done in-depth video on Aquapasto. I have been using it for about a month now, and you happened to be the one who introduced it to me. I think it’s a wonderful medium, especially if you like to paint impasto and to make marks in your painting. Thanks again
Yes I agree, it holds so many possibilities. I am glad you found it. Thank you for your comment, I am so glad the videos have been helpful
Thank you so much for another great video! I'm wondering if you've noticed that adding aquapasto slows down drying for watercolor and gouache?
Yes, I have. Actually should have mentioned this in my video. Thank you for pointing it out. I do also find drying time can vary significantly depending on room temperature so sometimes its more obvious than at other times.
Thanks so much for this Anna - such good timing. I came across a reference to aquapasto somewhere (forgotten where) a few weeks ago and thought hmm - that sounds interesting. I couldn't find anywhere to buy it in New Zealand shops but managed to find some through amazon so bought two tubes!! So now I'm keen to experiment and find out what I can do with it - and your videos are going to be really helpful :)
just thought - maybe it was one of your videos that I saw...!!!
It could be.. I have done alot of videos on this. I should really buy shares in aquapasto!! :))
I am glad you managed to find some. I really enjoy using it. Hope you get on well with it. Let me know if any questions come up. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed done this, I’ve just ordered some as I think it’s going to add versatility to my watercolour painting.
Yes its great, I am sure yoy will like it!
Thank you for this very interesting demonstration.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you
Hi ! A very useful video ! Personally , I am tempted to use it with gouache . I will get back to you with the results …
Yes please, I would love to hear how you get on..
@@annamabellaedgley i could not find it at my local art store, so I ordered it on Amazon where it is quite pricey . This will be this month’s treat 😅
I really hope you like it once you get it 😊
Thank you so much for another excellent video Anna! I have been using Aquapasto for years now and have created some wonderful effects with using it with watercolour! Also I love using a "Crackling Medium" with watercolors to create some interesting effects!...Again thank you so much for all that you do! Blessings, Rus from Bucks County Pennsylvania ❤️🖌🎨🤓
Thank you so much 😊 I never heard of that medium before.. I will look it up!! 🙏
