Yes, these gouache paints are highly mixable, allowing you to create custom shades on a palette before applying them to your artwork.
No, they are water-based and will remain water-soluble even after drying. You may want to use a fixative spray if you want to seal your finished work.
Watercolor paper or heavy-weight multimedia paper is recommended to prevent buckling when using water.
They are suitable for standard use, though you may prefer using specialized professional-grade brushes for fine detailing.
Keep the lids closed tightly and store the case flat in a cool, dry environment.
Yes, it works well on primed canvas, though it is best suited for paper surfaces.
Add 5-10 drops of water to the cup, cover it, and let it rest overnight to allow the moisture to re-absorb into the pigment.
Ensure you are using at least 140lb (300gsm) watercolor paper, which is better suited to handle the water content of the gouache.
Use less water when loading your brush to keep the pigment concentration higher.
To begin using the set, peel back the foil seal on each jelly cup. It is recommended to use the provided brushes or high-quality synthetic round brushes for best results. When applying the paint, use a mixing palette to thin the pigment to your desired consistency; applying it directly from the cup is ideal for heavy impasto effects, while diluting with water allows for watercolor-like washes.
After each session, ensure the plastic lid is snapped firmly shut to maintain the humidity inside the case. If you notice dust or debris on the paint surface, carefully wipe it away with a clean, dry cloth. Store the case in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the pigments from fading or the paint from hardening excessively.
