Gouache

Like watercolours, gouache is a water-soluble "tempera" paint. The main difference between the two is that gouache is opaque. Its use in schools has often wrongly given it the reputation of a medium reserved for children and students. Famous artists such as Raoul Dufy have shown otherwise.
The opacity of gouache is made full use of in Pebeo's range of pigment-rich paints. The surface coverage of gouache and resistance to light, and its velvety matt finish will delight adult artists as well as children!
