Studio Log : Gouache Snakes and Ornamental floral Sketches

More gouache studies, this time working with snakes. I’m experimenting with layering order, and the kinds of marks I can make with different brushes.

The blue snake worked out pretty well, the green lost the shape of their head a little bit. It is a smaller painting and that made it tough to control the shape of the marks the brushes made.

I do love the bright vibrant colors of gouache, these are M. Graham, they really pop off the page, which makes it really fun to paint with.
