radiantfractureFinally did my first little gouache painting with the new paints I got for Christmas:
I asked for some one-notch-nicer paints than the absolute bottom-of-the-barrel set I was working with (like, a tenth the price of anything else). I think the colour of these new ones is definitely denser and richer.
The pointillist lights came out a little more dramatic than I meant them to, so I just ran with it.
As usual, I'm posting while waiting for a pot of stew to cool -- this is gumbo, sort of, though gumbo no actual Cajun cook would recognize.

*You can tell (or maybe not, ha) that it's painted after the Garrick Sangil photo I used in the cover art of the journalling game I made.
