Watercolor is of the earliest painting techniques taught when you have spent a good time with the light and dark that charcoal offers for the study of shadows and lights. It is this watercolor that has certain basic concepts that should never be overlooked, such as the knowledge of gouache.
The wash is to mix different amounts of water to cause certain effects by letting the surplus drag itself when we paint in watercolor. The gouache technique allows us to reflect certain quite striking effects and that we can find some in the work of the young artist Viktoria Kravchenko.
The watercolor technique requires on the part of the artist a great security in your strokes and spontaneity in execution. Let's say that when one acquires security and know-how, one can perform high quality work quite quickly if we compare it to other techniques with a slower process such as oil.
