Gouache Painting Class: Butterfly
Paint a yellow butterfly on grey or tan toned paper!

2.5 hours

label $75 (Afterpay available)
What you'll do
Join Alex Louisa for a fun and creative session where you'll learn how to paint a beautiful butterfly using gouache paint! No prior experience needed, just bring your enthusiasm and we'll provide all the materials. With a similar process to watercolour, gouache paint has a lovely matte finish that we find really appealing but it does take a little bit of time to work out what kind of layering works best with this medium. We're here to help you with that! In this class, we'll begin by making some colour swatches to familiarise ourselves with the paint consistency we need and we'll test how our colours layer atop each other. Then Alex will guide you through painting a yellow butterfly on lovely toned grey paper, including how to paint a soft-edged shadow to really bring it to life. The line art is provided to begin with if you aren't comfortable drawing. At the end of the session, you'll go home with a 7 x 5" (17.5 x 12.5cm) finished piece, which will fit into a standard sized frame if you choose and your swatches sheet will be a helpful reference for your future gouache explorations.
Knowledge required
Beginner-friendly as we'll be working through each layer step by step with you.
What you'll get
- A completed 7 x 5" artwork and your swatches sheet to take home
- All materials are provided for use within the class.
- Tea and coffee are provided.Â
