Very lovely. I really like the details on the head and ears. I also remember working with Goache in college and it was kinda fun. Though my paints have dried out since then. =(

The beauty of gouache is that you can just add a couple drops of water, give it a stir, and it comes right back :)

Well actually I didn't use them for like a year or two and they solidified into solid chunks of "paint rock". Though technically I could probably wet it and use it as a huge lump of watercolor block.

Though what I did like about goache was the ability to paint with it directly like acrylic (though it tended to dry out 5x faster WHILE you were painting with it!), and you could also add water to thin it out and paint as if it were water paints.
