Moody Lights in Gouache

🌧️ Mood matters. Learn to paint it with gouache.
In this expressive, sketchbook-style course, Brandon Gonzales creates three distinct gouache studies, each exploring the emotional power of light and atmosphere across different landscapes.

You’ll follow along as he paints:

🎨 Timpanogos Rise – Using an analogous color palette, Brandon pushes saturation and color harmony to create a luminous effect in his sketchbook.
🌄 Kern Sunrise – Focuses on strong composition through ridge design while staying grounded in the reference photo.
🌫️ Heisler Park Glow – Captures stormy, low-light drama, pushing values and edges for a compelling moody glow.

Whether you’re working in gouache or just want to practice expressive lighting, this course is a masterclass in capturing feeling through simplicity.

🕒 Runtime: 3+ hours
🔒 Available exclusively through the Pro Artists Club
