A birthday card
Using Gouache paint, I was thrilled how this birthday card turned out for a friend. Gouache is the only paint I will use-it's a happy medium from the powerful acrylics and unpredictable watercolors. After the paint dried, I used a fine sketching pen to bring out more definition. I hope to make more birthday cards that turn out as nice as this one.
