How to choose gouache paint

Choose gouache when you want flat, matt, opaque colour that can still be reactivated with water. Traditional gouache can be rewetted and reworked; acrylic gouache dries water-resistant, so layers stay put.

• Traditional gouache suits illustration and design work where you may want to lift or adjust colour.
• Acrylic gouache suits layering without disturbing earlier coats.
• Mix to a creamy consistency for even, streak-free coverage.
• Heavier paper or illustration board stops thick layers from cracking or cockling.
