I bought a set of gouache paints today to see how they were different from my watercolors. I have never used gouache before and didn't want to wait to draw first, so I found an old drawing from 2012 that was was just ink on paper and colored that in. Gouache colors are stronger than my watercolors although once I put the image in the computer I can manipulate the colors to look anyway I want, so it only matters if you are looking at the original. Some part of me is really resistant to letting the computer become part of my drawing process, but I have decided to embrace technology. Tomorrow I am going to take the plunge and get an ipad and start drawing on that. I am thinking of using animated drawings as a big element in my film about Riggs. This is a good time to start exploring that. Let's see what happens.
