Hello Everyone!

Welcome to my second Skillshare class of the year 2022. I am so excited that you have decided to join me. I am so excited to take you on a wonderful full painting journey where we explore skies together.

Every time I look at the skies and see the wonderful colors blending into one another and the clouds floating and adding their own magic, I cannot stop myself from capturing the moment and putting them on paper. And, in this class, we'll be painting 10 beautiful skies together using Gouache paints.

his class focuses on the medium Gouache. Itis my favorite medium to paint with when it comes to landscapes because you can add opaque layers one over the other like acrylics but at the same time thin down the consistency, adding thin layers, and rewet the paints like watercolors. It's like the best of both mediums in one medium.

Don't worry if you don't have any prior knowledge about gouache because we will be covering all the basics you need to know about getting started with gouache.

This class is designed for all skill levels. Even if you're just starting out, you can join the class to learn how to use a combination of different Gouache techniques for your paintings. We'll be exploring Gouache techniques such as blending, layering, dry brush, etc. Everything taught in this class is in real-time. While painting these 10 projects you can learn different techniques & elements and use them for your paintings in the future as well.

This class also focusses on painting from reference images which will give you confidence to interpret photographs and put them on paper. All the reference images will be available in the resources section.

So, if you're someone who is fascinated by the skies and want to paint them then join me in this class and let's explore these dreamy skies together.
