About the Book
Gouache is a type of paint which is centuries old. The term gouache was first used in France in the eighteenth century. Gouache forms a thicker layer of paint on the paper surface and does not allow the paper to show through. Often fine artists use gouache in conjunction with water colour or on its own. Perhaps it's a medium worth discovering again.
Gouache paints have rich colors. It has more pigment than watercolor which is why the colors are richer. Until recently few fine artists use gouache. Catalina prefers using it. She paints with gouache, color pencils and ink on paper. It is an intuitive and creative way of the artist.
The Catalogue includes 40 images of Gouache Paintings by Catalina Lira.
