How I made my own paint


Hey lovlies, I'm back from a beautiful break where I sketched and painted using different media - always interesting and sometimes frustrating as you can imagine. This time, as well as the inks I love to sketch with, I took along some gouache I had had languishing in my studio for years ... and I loved it! So of course I needed more gouache, more colours!


Here's a short video showing how I made my own gouache, and what I love about this unique paint.





Like playing with paint? join me for The Art Class online autumn term, starts Wednesday 8th Oct for 8 weeks, 6-7.30pm UK time.



If you're interested in making your own gouache and sign up the The Art Class I will send you a sample of Carrara to try... after all I do seem to have an abundance ;-)

Curate your art, Curate your life

Art is so much more than decoration.  

A house that feels like home to you doesn’t just happen by chance – you make it happen.  

The paintings we choose for our walls greatly impact our energy, mood, and overall well-being. 

By mindfully choosing art that lifts your mood, you consciously choose to feel good in your home.​
