You're amazing! A natural born teacher. Thanks for the great tutorial on Gesso.
Clear gesso can be extremely gritty and damage paint brushes if one wants to paint. But its great for using pastels
Question: can I use clear gesso over oil paint and then apply spray paint or acrylic paint on top. I always hear never apply acrylic over oil. But does the clear gesso solve that issue?
Thank you for showing this. But I’m so confused; I have Amsterdam clear gesso, and it’s not clear at all! It really dulls the fabric and puts a white layer on the fabric. Even if I’ve thinned it with water. I thought it would be clear but it’s definitely not. Do you maybe know what? Your gesso seems very clear. 🙏🏽
I'm definitely buying some clear gesso - I want the gritty effect - are there any that do not have this? I want to avoid them.
My understanding is that Matt Medium also works over glossy magazines and paints as a ground. Also Matt medium seals the pastels, making them permanent. Is there any advantage to using clear gesso instead of Matt medium for these purposes? Thank you!
Can you put clear gesso on oilpastel?
What would you recommend to seal a drawing done over clear gesso? In particular oil based colored pencils which I use to add fine details to acrylic paintings.
After you apply the pastels over acrylic, can you brush varnish over the painting without moving the soft pastel around?
Do you ever use it as a glue (like collage or art journaling)? I see people doing that and it never sticks for me.
Wow love your teaching style
Love this little tips for learning!
Thanks for the demonstration! I have wondered about the uses of clear gesso.
So helpful! Thank you!
You have no idea how much this helped me - thank you so much. I have been trying to start in Art Journaling and everyone who teaches assume there is some knowledge already. All of the gessos are a mystery to me and it stops me from any mixed media art journaling. This was so awesome - thank you again :)
Thanks. I’ve always wondered about clear gesso.
