Lately I've been using watercolor and gouache on paper. It is easier to deal with when away from the studio which has been the case. A less toxic medium, using water as opposed to solvents and not having to wear gloves is a nice break. One similarity with the two mediums would be my approach, traditional watercolor technique working light to dark. I usually start with a light ground and then throw the rules out with both mediums. Sound practice is important from an archival standpoint.

These two images show my simple technique rather well. The immediacy of watercolor is a definite attraction.
