Clouds - 5x7

I feel like I'm constantly trying out new techniques with the gouache, there isn't enough time in the day to explore it all! With this piece I was trying to paint more transparently, building up layers. It's a tricky thing to do with gouache because I'm finding that it can get muddy pretty easily.
