Gouache is a water-soluble, opaque medium that's similar to watercolor but has some advantages over it. It's often described as a mix between oil paints and watercolor, and its flat, bright tones can be a nice change from oils. Gouache is also forgiving and easy to learn, making it a good medium for beginners and beyond.
