Jay. Am trying this with my gouache. Thank you. It is popular Because of its simplicity. Basic painting knowledge tutorials is not often given this generous. Β eventhough it is photoshop,layering with gouache works the same way.

Thanks! This is really useful and helps me with my backgrounds a lot ^.^
Oh, and in case you used Gimp, what brush did you use for the leaves?

if you use gouache try a stippler brush, if you don't have that try a cottonswap or a small flat just twist and turn. In photoshop you should be able to add selected brush shape
