Abstract: is one of the most ancient and versatile of painting mediums. Not only is gouache relied on by watercolour artists to add colour and highlights to their paintings, it is also the primary painting medium of designers, illustrators, and graphic artists. Rob Howard's Gouache for Illustration shows artists all the basic tools and techniques needed for handling this medium. The book also includes advanced illustrating techniques, including methods for achieving the special effects and textures that gouache is noted for, such as glass and silver. Step-by-step demonstrations are provided for all the major art and design disciplines where gouache is commonly used as the medium of choice. These range from scientific, automotive, and children's illustration to hyper-realistic fantasy art and photorealistic fine art.
