     EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT GOUACHE FREE GUIDE What is your color palette? How do you store your gouache? How do you keep your gouache moist? What kind of brushes do you use?   These are some of the questions I get asked almost every day. So to make it easier to share this information with those of you who are interested in gouache I decided to combine all my answers to the questions I get on a regular basis in one place. I have created a 20 page PDF in which I am covering all my painting equipment in detail. You can get the PDF by the link below. I hope you find the information helpful.  Gouache Painting Supplies PDF
