Using Gouache
Gouache is a water-based paint (sometimes called body colour) and is an under-rated medium. It can be used as is for an opaque paint or diluted with water to give a watercolour effect. I normally use it undiluted and lay one stroke on top of another, trying not to disturb the stroke underneath. It has a matte finish which I like.
Through the woods, one of my first gouache paintings, shows a different effect for gouache.
What are ACEOs? ACEOs are small works of art measuring 2.5x3.5inch. They are an excellent and affordable way to start an art collection.

I love color so these little ACEO's please me very much. I also like that you are doing the Artist Trading Cards. I've thought about it, but done nothing more.
