The Gesso can be applied in different ways to achieve textured effects or can also be applied to be smooth. In comparison to the standard Mont Marte Gesso, the Texture Gesso has a slightly thicker viscosity enabling the artists to apply it heavily and for the gesso to retain texture and brush strokes once dry.
This is a great surface preparation solution for artists who aim to create a lot of texture in their work.
Why use Gesso?
Using Gesso on a pre-primed canvas gives your painting a smoother, more even surface.
The smooth surface allows paint to flow freely and won't get lost in the weave of the canvas.
Gesso also reduces acidity levels of paper and wood, giving your painting longer life when using these supports.
