Traditional vs. Acrylic Gouache

You asked, we answered: what’s the difference between traditional gouache and acrylic gouache? 🫡 We’ll let Mazi do the talking, but here’s a simple primer: 🤝 Traditional and acrylic gouache have some things in common. They’re both fluid, and they both dry to an opaque, matte finish. ❌ One thing they don’t share? A binder-the substance that (combined with pigments) allows paint to be applied to ...

Fabulous demonstration! Love the colors! Very expressive. 👏
More detail please!!
these look gorgeous ☺☺
Love creating wearable art with my personal brand @snavadesigns mixing 2D with 3D. Excited to try this technique thank you!
Gorgeous work. You are both a talented painter and teacher. Thank you.
We agree! She's wonderful!
I am planning on trying out 72 of your colored pencils! Idk when but soon though!
When you do, make sure to tell us how you like them!😃
@@Blick_ArtI think I will have them somewhere near New Years! Maybe for Christmas I can test your colored pencils out
Can i dye 100% Polyester with that?
No, this is just for natural fibers. The manufacturer recommends iDye Poly for polyester fabrics
😍 this color palette is just stunning. Love Jenna ❤
We feel the same way!
I wish you showed how to remove entire piece from acetate
Super cool
PLEASE make a video about how to reassemble it! I took it apart and can’t figure out how to put it back together :(
Oh, no! Please call us at 1-800-933-2542 or email info(at)dickblick.com so our Product Information Team can help you with reassembly!
After using Rowney and later Daler-Rowney for almost fifty years I find I have aged but in that time my paintings have stayed the same as the day I put the last touches to them. .Dorian Gray in reverse I think . If you are looking for a reliable paint this you can trust in Daler-Rowney Geogian and Artist's grade of colours.
Great company with a distinguished history. They supplied artist's colors to Constable and Turner!
Thank you Sarah. As a beginner this was really helpful!
We think so too!🙂
I see alot of people complaining about the tray coming out, but what happens when the blade gets dull?
The blades on this sharpener are quite durable, but there is an easily installed replacement blade assembly available from authorized parts dealers. The manufacturer will be able to direct you to a source, if necessary. Hope this helps!
😊
Hello! Can i use this to cut a 3mm board instead? Im from the Philippines, im planning to buy this from amazon. Thanks!
3mm exceeds the thickness that can be cut with this model. You would need a much more robust cutter for boards that thick, something rated for 8-ply board.
I am a Still Life Painter and I have always applied an Imprimatura of Yellow Ochre on my linen panels. I then proceed to create a Monochromatic Underpainting in Burnt Umber. I then proceed to paint a Grisaille on top of the Burnt Umber underpainting. It makes for a much wider range of Chroma from subtle to vibrant. 😃👨🎨
That sounds like a terrific way to start a painting, that sets up brilliant colors in the upper layers!
❤❤❤
Thank you for this. Altho I have a question, I just bought a water-based matt varnish, (I never use matt varnish) when it came out it was not like a liquid it was a little bit hard, do you think it went spoiled or corrupted? Because it ruined my painting the colors came off. The paint was dry as hell😂 but thank gof it wasnt my important painting i was just testing it in another painting.
We're sorry to hear that! Water-based varnishes and mediums that have an unusual consistency or have separated and can't be easily recombined are probably unsuitable for use. If you purchased this from us, please contact Customer Service so we can assist further: 800-723-2787 or email custservice@dickblick.com
That was very helpful. Thank you😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very informative video on Golden Acrylics line! Thank you for being so thorough!
We're extremely grateful to Golden for providing this wealth of information!
Enjoyed and learned a lot. Thank you.
We think this is a great presentation for people new to painting, and a nice way to touch base with fundamentals at any stage!
what's if it's half cotton half spandex?
Jacquard recommends combining iDye for natural fabrics with iDye Poly when using a blend. Hope this helps!
I really enjoyed this. Thank you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
So glad you enjoyed it!🙂
Give us a 0.3mm version of this double-knock pencil, please !
We'll pass this along to the category buyers! Thanks!
Make a 0.3mm version of this and make pencil lovers go to heaven.
Thanks for the suggestion!😃
❤🎉🎉🎉 excellent! Thank you!😊
So glad you enjoyed it!
Hi how are you doing I just subscribed to your channel I watched your video you did a great job
Thank you, and thanks for subscrbing!
This is fascinating ☺☺
Nice
This is brilliant ☺☺
Thank you, simple and quick explanation of how it works, doesn't need much more unlike many other very long videos that don't tell you much
Thank you! Sometimes seeing the tool in use is a great way to learn!
This is so good, what a stunning video ☺☺☺
Thank you!
This looks fantastic ☺☺
This is so stunning ☺☺
Does it have indicator for 2B and 4B? I only use HB, with the lead the pencils come with. I draw with B, 2B and 4B (when I am lucky enough to see any) 0.5 .. 0.7 and I will have 5 in O.9 mm.. just so awesome with for drawing.
The hardness indicator on our Blick Premier Mechanical Pencil displays a range from 4H to 2B
Very creative indeed
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
“Remove pencil and admire the point.” 😂 That’s adorable. Lol I want this sharpener and I don’t even use pencils.
LOL! We'll make a pencil user out of you yet! 😉
@@Blick_Art My dream is to go to one of your stores someday! As a self trained Mixed Media Artist, I spend a LOT of time on your website!
@@theartistjodievans We hope to see you at one of our stores soon! We try to make every visit a memorable experience!
Delightfully Cute instructions. Thanks for sharing 😊🌟
Glad you enjoyed it!
Would modeling paste work the same way?
Modeling paste is a bit more stiff, but it should work with most of these techniques. You may need to move a little more slowly depending on the volume you're using. Hope this helps!
@@Blick_Artok thanks
Great lesson! Gamblin is the brand I've used thus far. Please offer full time videos. Thank you.
¿ cómo se usan eso productos para no echarlos a perder?
To avoid spoiling the remaining product, make sure to close the container tightly after use. Dispense the paint with a clean tool, and don't put used product back in the container, especially if it's been diluted with water. That will help prevent introducing mold. Also, acrylics should not be allowed to freeze. Hope this helps!
Why do those cyan and magenta look like regular red and blue to me? Are they just that pigmented?!
Unfortunately the ambient lighting near the roller mill makes the colors appear warmer than they actually are. The shots of mixing color on the palette are more true to the actual hues.
What kind of double end blender are you using? Thank you
That's a Prismacolor Premier Dual-Ended Colorless Blender!
Could it be used on a marble fireplace
We don't think this would produce a durable finish on a surface exposed to high temperatures. There are specialty coatings made especially for fireplaces. Hope this helps!
What are the particular lead indicator marks that can be set?
The hardness indicator on our Blick Premier Mechanical Pencil displays a range from 4H to 2B
@@Blick_Art Specifics?
@@piitii8141 By rotating the collar, you can display each separate hardness degree ranging from 4H through 2B.
@@Blick_Art I'm going to posit that the degrees are : 4H, 2H HB, and 2B.
@@piitii8141 Sorry for the incomplete reply: The hardness range displayed includes: 4H, 2H, H, F, HB, B, 2B.
I have another question (I live in a remote place and am self-teaching!) if I (for example) tint a gloss medium with blue and then layer over a (dry) black paint layer, will it give a blue tinge/reflect?
Transparent glazes need a reflective color underneath, so the appearance of blue will probably not be very noticeable. Hope this helps!
@@Blick_Art thank you!
Lovely beginner class! Thank you.
I definitely am going to test them. I might be replacing my primaries with these new colors👍😃
Fantastic! These were formulated to give the maximum mixing solutions in an efficient triad, so they should produce virtually any mixture you need!
These look so stunning ☺☺
