Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Een schildermethode waarin gebruik wordt gemaakt van een matte, ondoorzichtige waterverf. Bij gouache worden ondoorzichtige kleurlagen toegepast, in tegenstelling tot de transparante smeren van de aquareltechniek; dit verschil komt voort uit de verschillende pigmentdichtheden van deze media. 
Portuguese ..... Um método de pintura com tinta aquarela fosca e opaca. A pintura a guache emprega camadas opacas de cor em vez das aguadas transparentes usadas na técnica de aquarela, devido às diferentes densidades de pigmento da mídia.
