My Art Tip of the Week
What is and why would you use Gesso ?
Gesso is an acrylic undercoat / primer and comes in White or Black
Using Gesso – gives a ground to your surface, thus allowing a layer between the paint and substrate surface. ( which means you ultimately use less paint)
- Gesso is Very Opaque so covers up painting errors very well.
-Gesso needs to be used on any Wooden Board before painting and acts as a undercoat which protects the boards surface from any dampness that could be effected from applying straight paint.
