  • This fine quality gouache levels to an even matte surface, while the opacity is perfect for adding "spot color" and highlights to transparent watercolor paintings. This line of gouache is unique in that the range gets its high degree of opacity from pigment load alone, not from added opacifiers. Made in England.

Denis Ponsot

Award-winning artist, Denis Ponsot has worked in all of the various media but prefers to work in watercolor. He also teaches watercolor painting, oils, mixed media, and drawing from introductory to advanced levels to children and adults. He says,

“Teaching is my greatest inspiration. The combination of teaching and painting has helped to make my artistic experience complete. Working with students is important to me because I enjoy helping them with their painting and drawing problems. I am able to encourage them to experiment with their own ideas. I take pleasure in helping my students expand their artistic horizons beyond their expectations.”
Denis teaches at The Craft Students League and The Kids Club in Manhattan and at the Art Guild in addition to accepting commissions in watercolor, oil, and portrait painting. Denis has developed watercolor portfolios in three areas: “Landscape,” “Flowers and Still Life” and “The Figure and Portraits.”
