Question about watercolor paints

[katmondoo]

7. Sometimes I fix a watercolor using Gouache. If your tree trunk is too dark use a lighter color

gouache in some areas as high lights. For beach paintings of ocean waves use white gouache to show wave tops. I tear off a corner of a heavy watercolor paper, dip in white gouache and dab horizontally onto the ocean color to create the waves. Many really good effects using watercolor and gouache. Also Gouache can be used to paint on wood. Must have several coats varnish to preserve the painting. The colors deepen and really come alive after the varnish.
