Welcome to the Winter Wonderland Gouache Adventure! 

This is a series of gouache tutorials full of winter magic to help you explore your paints and develop your skills in a fun and seasonal way.

You’ll find 7 tutorials to complete that contain a great range of techniques including:

• Layering

• Blending

• Soft Blending with a mop brush

• Adding a soft glowy halo

• Creating beautiful silhouettes

• Blending through layers

• And more!

The tutorials you’ll work through are:

Fairy Lights

Reindeer Glow

The Christmas Party

Winters Night

Still Dawn

Glad Tidings

Christmas Bokeh

Each of the tutorials has a longer version and a shorter version which you can choose depending on how you prefer to work. 

The shorter versions have sections sped up and are a great starting point if you want to get a feel for the project before you give it a go. Whereas the longer versions are real-time so you can see every brushstroke. Both length videos have the same instructions from me- so you never have to worry about missing out on a tip!

With the occasional exception at the intro these tutorials are without music and so can be enjoyed whilst listening to a podcast or music. I like to talk about the individual techniques as they are introduced, but then give you time to quietly explore.

The tutorials are added in two sections but can be explored in whatever order inspires you the most!
