Watercolour Vs Designers Gouache | Winsor & Newton

Jimmy Leslie, Director of Educational programmes at Winsor & Newton, explores the unique properties of our Designers Gouache. Distinguishing it from watercolour, Jimmy highlights gouache's exceptional matte and opaque qualities, attributing them to its higher pigment-to-binder ratio. Through practical demonstrations with Permanent Rose, Jimmy shows the differences between watercolour and gouache and explains how to avoid potential issues like flaking and cracking.
