How to shake the stars and white spots in gouache?

Gouache starry sky and white spots

1. You can dip some white gouache pigment in your old toothbrush (the white pigment is slightly diluted with a little water, so don't directly touch the white gouache) and then rub the bristles with your thumb, so that the white pigment will collapse on the paper.

2. Dip a brush in the white pigment (same as above, not too thick or too thin), then pick up the pen and tap the pen dipped in the pigment, and the color of the pen will be thrown on the paper.

Ps: Both methods should pay attention to the concentration of white pigment and the distance from the drawing paper should not be too far or too close.

Gouache painting is a kind of painting which is made by mixing powder pigment and water. Its performance characteristics are between opaque and translucent, and colors can produce gorgeous, soft, bright and rich artistic effects on the screen. Powder content will limit the smooth activity of watercolor.

4. Gouache painting has a high color saturation when it is wet, but when it is dry, the saturation is greatly reduced due to the action of powder and the loss of color, which is the limit of its color purity. Studying gouache can have a good understanding of color and a new understanding of color transparency. In the process of learning gouache, you can learn how to mix colors and further understand the importance of color to gouache.
