If you can't get casein, I'd recommend using acryla gouache or tinted gesso (which works fine).James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-78484724847659951582016-06-16T10:25:30.342-04:002016-06-16T10:25:30.342-04:00James, I'm curious about what you said ' I...James, I'm curious about what you said ' I don't cut them out. Instead I paint over them in casein and have another go on another day...' <br /><br />Since I'm starting on natural media, I too have a few tries that didn't come out as expected. Do you use casein because it doesn't reactivate with water, unlike gouache? Could you still paint over in gouache if you can't get casein?

W...I have been meaning to ask this for a while now.<br />What to you are the biggest differences between gouache and acrylic?<br /><br />Both seem to have similar properties - fast drying, opaque, can be thinned and used like watercolor, drying time can be extended, etc. Carrying a few tubes of acrylic doesn't seem any more difficult than carrying a few tubes of gouache.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13527988753019907130noreply@blogger.com
