In addition to the still lifes that returned to me a decade later, She returned to me. I avoided meeting her in every possible way. I pretended not to notice her. Or discontentedly spread condemning gossip about her. What would you think? I'm talking about gouache. Not to say that the changes happened suddenly. The iceberg began to melt gradually.
Perhaps most of all I was pushed by experiments and a thirst to try the material in a new way. After all, it has been my main material for five years of regular use. So you are contemplating my first gouache work in so many years. First impressions: gouache brightens when it dries. For some reason, this came as a surprise to me, although I am well aware of this fact. I wanted to work out of habit as I do with oil, but it didn't work out that way. Perhaps the most difficult place is the gradient.
I want to work on this familiar-new material.
The paper for acrylic and gouache are used in the work.
