Gouache?

Have you ever used gouache before? I’ve heard about it in museums before, and read “ink and gouache, 1913″ a bazillion times, but I never had any idea what it was. Finally, curioisity has gotten the better of me, and I’ve been reading up a bit. I have to say, I thought it was kind of like a crayon or oil pastel, but apparently it’s opaque paint, like watercolor, but totally flat. I think I’m going to have to get some at lunch today and try it out. Apparently there is gold and silver gouache as well.
