Hey, there’s nothing not to like about goauche. Hard to master though. But it’s fun all the time. I like it what you did with the landscape. Feels abstract and leaves a lot of place for the viewer to interpret. I would love to see more gouache stuff from you, Rebecca!

Hiya,
I like what you did with the last figure in gouche. It is soft but still has the gestural rhythm. A couple of the experimental works are nice as well. I like the warm burnt sienna toned female face the most.
I agree with razz. Gouche is a great media, but it does take some to master or even come acclimated with it. It reminds me of acrylic but with the blending and rework of watercolour. It is a really nice medium to play with. I hope to see more of your work. 
Once I get more acclimated with the Scottsdale area. I am also hoping to go sketch and paint some of the surrounding landscapes and architecture. The colours here are amazing.
As always take care, be safe, and farewell

Hi
Love the work. Nice stuff with all the oil portraits you did. I love being able to see a texture in a pice of art work it always gives so much more feeling to it.
I never really been much of a traditional artist, my sisters do that. Nice to see what you can pull off with mixing traditional with model tech.

nice Guache image - definitely would love to see more of those in the future - I love the variety in the saturation of the skin - makes it come alive even though it’s just a sillhouette :buttrock:

Thanks for the nice replies everyone!
I’m so excited, one of my high school students was just accepted to her top choice school (CCA in San Francisco) and was offered a $40,000 scholarship!!! She just called to tell me the news. I’m particularly proud since I’ve been privately tutoring her for a little under a year. She couldn’t reach her mom so I found out before her parents haha…I’m really stoked!

Congratulations!!!

Well, it’s kind of been a while…work / teaching has been keeping me busy and on the freeways I guess. All of this is work that has previously been posted to my blog, which I am much better about updating. I’ve also fairly recently created a portfolio blog for my own and my students’ artwork.

Great studies Rebecca; your figures has something liquid but they are also so strong at the same time. Impressive O.o! Go on with the gouache… I think it’s a really interesting media with a lot of potential

breathtakingly beautiful stuff, Rebecca.
I am especially stunned by how each of your works carries your fingerprint on it without style getting in the way of the art itself (if that makes sense to anyone else but me… 
)

Loved seeing your work. I like your studio too, so open. Looks like most of your work has been traditional media. Have you been doing any digital? I also understand being on the road too much. I keep a small pad of paper on the dashboard of my Tahoe so I can sketch if I am just sitting somewhere or at the airport sitting. I downloaded posemaniac on my iphone for ref’s too. I will start following your blog. I did not know you had one.
Later!
