Here are some painting tips for capturing the big-box landscape in gouache,
• Mustard-colored casein priming (done first in the studio) doesn't activate when rewet.
• In the drawing stage, I'm looking for key landmarks in the scene, which I use for measurements and alignments.
• The drawing is more a scaffolding or a foundation than it is a detailed underdrawing.
• By not making the drawing too elaborate, I'm more willing to paint over it, which is important in gouache.
• The sky is the keynote of every landscape, so I paint it first and paint my way to the foreground.
• With such an insistent priming color, I need to use opaques to cover it up.
