Discover the versatility of gouache in this hands-on workshop with Teresa Ricci. Gouache is a uniquely flexible medium—able to behave like transparent watercolor when thinned with water or build up like acrylic when applied more opaquely. In this session, you’ll explore both approaches and learn how to find the consistency and handling that feels most natural to you.
The workshop begins with guided experimentation as you get comfortable working in either acrylic gouache or traditional water‑based gouache. Teresa will demonstrate how to control opacity, layer color, and create form through confident brushwork. Once you’ve explored the medium, you’ll move into a full still‑life painting, working either from a small object set up in the studio or from a photo reference. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a completed gouache piece, and a deeper understanding of how this adaptable medium can expand your painting practice. Supplies are not included in the workshop fee. A PDF supply list is available in the workshop description.
Please Note: For all administrative questions—such as registration issues, cancellations, or workshop attendance—please contact Arlene’s directly. Instructors are not responsible for handling these matters. You can reach us at [email protected] or call during store hours at (518) 482-8881.
Our courses are typically held in the lower level of Arlene's. Because access to the lower level is available only by stair, please let us know if using the stairs presents any difficulty for you in advance of the class so we can make alternate arrangements. We want to make sure everyone is able to enjoy and participate in our classes.
