Let's try them out ✨ Painting Demo, Review & Tips // Holbein Acryla Gouache

In this video I am taking my newest addition to my art supply collection to the test: Acryla Gouache by Holbein. I have been eyeing them for a very long time and eventually decided to buy them.
Artists allover the world make amazing art with these and I noticed quite the hype around them.
I put money aside every month because I wanted to get the whole set of 102 colors. My wallet is bleeding now, but they do not sell these paints in Germany so I had to ship from overseas.
All the individual colors that I longed for were constantly sold out. With this set I do not need to worry for a very long time, it has every tint you can ever ask for. Needless to say I feel guilty for spending so much money. That's why I reflect on wether or not this was a good buy.

Content of this video:

- Why did I get them?
- Painting Demo (art timelapse) of me painting a portrait
- Pros & Cons of these paints
- Tips for painting with Acryla Gouache
- My conclusion

I hope this video is insightful and gives you something to work with if you are considering to make this expensive purchase.

This is my second video (and you can tell I am not quite used to speak into a camera in a foreign language but we'll get there). Still, please keep that in mind while watching it.
That being said, your honest feedback on how I can improve my videos is highly appreciated.

// ABOUT ME //

I am Monika (but most people call me Moni, pronounced Mo-knee) and I am a Berlin, Germany based certified Graphic Designer who quit the profession for something completely different in order to flee the "artistic burnout" and crunch culture present in that field.
Currently I assist physically impaired people in their daily life and use my additional leisure time for creative projects both in regards to art and music making.
My hopes for the future are that I can eventually switch over to working freelance. Until then I will be figuring out what my artistic goals are.
