Type of paint consisting of a pigment suspended in water?

Gouache (from the Italian guazzo, "water paint, splash") or bodycolor (the term preferred by art historians) is a type of paint consisting of pigment suspended in water. Gouache differs from watercolor in that the particles are larger, the ratio of pigment to water is much higher, and an additional, inert, white pigment such as chalk is also present. This makes gouache heavier and more opaque, with greater reflective qualities.


Can you use gouache paints to paint on wood?

You certainly can. It absorbs very evenly into the wood. However, you will have to seal it, as the gouache could reactive or fade. I would suggest a spray clear coat.
