Can I hang these paintings in direct sunlight?

Gouache pigments are susceptible to fading when exposed to direct, strong sunlight over long periods. Hang them on interior walls away from south-facing windows to preserve the original vibrancy of the colours. Using UV-protective glass during framing offers an additional layer of conservation for sensitive water-based works on paper.

How do I distinguish gouache from watercolour?

Watercolour is translucent, allowing the white of the paper to shine through the thin washes of pigment. Gouache contains added chalk or white pigment, making the paint opaque and capable of covering underlying dark lines. This opacity gives gouache a matte, velvety surface that resembles oil paint without the glossy sheen.

What is pith paper and how fragile is it?

Pith paper is a spongy, cellular material harvested from plant stems, used extensively in nineteenth-century Chinese export art. It has a pillowed, velvety texture that accepts opaque gouache brilliantly. Because the material is naturally brittle and sensitive to pressure, these works must remain protected beneath glass and handled with extreme care.
