Gouache allows me to do that, however any opaque
medium will allow the same flexibility.
I am not a purist, and, if necessary, I will use other
materials in my work, like coloured pencils, when I
think it will achieve a better result, but having said
that, the majority of my work is just gouache and
watercolour.
My style is realist, but not photorealism. My
paintings reflect what the subject looks like, but I
doubt if you would ever confuse my work with a
photograph.
You can see examples of my finished work
on my web site http://www.rodgerscott.com. The site
also includes my biography, awards and
contact details. n
