      Maybe you used it like watercolors? I find qouache to be more similar to oils than it is to watercolor. When I practice with gouache I go look for oil painting tutorials instead.
      The best approach is to start the base like watercolors, then layer like oil, except goache will sometimes reactivate especially when using tons of water.
      Goache is always better fresh from the tube but it's still usuable when put and dried on a pan/palette

    What I like about you is that your skills and you actually showed us your messed painting, which gives me hope that first attempt is not that bad and it helps you learn more..and your painting was awesome

    Did anyone else get distracted by the little wooden korok in the beginning?

    I've never heard of gouache before now. This video was relaxing, intriguing, and overall makes me want to invest in this medium. You have a rather relaxing and inviting voice by the way.

    thx. I like gouache, but find it hard to work with. the rewetting annoys me so much. also with my ecoline liquid watercolor.. maybe I'll try acrylic one day. until then I'll try your blending tipps

    This has nothing to do with the video but the little Korok dude at 2:13 is adorable. Also, great video thank you!
