Any plans for some gouache for beginners lessons?

I guess the only advice I would have is to try to draw more than you write. Break it up, you know. After you make a few notes, then be sure to make drawings to solidify the point.
Or maybe have a day where you just watch the lesson without notes. Then try to summarize it the next day...see what you can recall. That way you get the main ideas down without all the rote learning.
What is the most important fundamental to learn? (Observational skills, Anatomy, Gesture, Perspective, Construction)
They're all important :) Think about it--if one of them is wrong, then the whole piece looks off. It's like if you try to bake a cake, but forget one of the ingredients--no one really wants to eat it. This whole art thing is a journey and it never really ends. Take your time and try to learn them all.

Those look really good! I tried my first ever gouache portrait yesterday (second time ever using gouache) ... still have lots of room to grow myself haha.
Thanks. I'm new to this medium too. It takes time to learn. Please post your gouache painting I wann see. 😃
