Gesso is made of a binder mixed with chalk, pigment, or gypsum. Gesso gives the painting surface enhanced texture and allows the paint to adhere to it. Acrylic gesso is the most commonly used type of gesso nowadays.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Applications_of_Gesso\"><\/span>Applications of Gesso?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>These are 5 ways to make use of gesso.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use gesso as a <\/span><b>primer<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A gesso primer smoothens your painting surface. Gesso allows the painting surface to retain the color pigments. Wet paint does not seep through the fibers of absorbent surfaces when a gesso is used. Gesso enhances the color vibrancy of paint in addition to surface protection. Solid materials are made more durable with a gesso primer.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use gesso for <\/span><b>dry-brush techniques<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Gesso gives a surface the ideal texture for a dry-brush artwork. Gesso with dry-brushing creates distinct lines and adds dimension to painted surfaces.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use gesso for <\/span><b>whitewashing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Gesso on textured surfaces including embossed designs, 3D shapes, and wrinkled paper allows details to pop more visibly against a base color.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use gesso as an alternative <\/span><b>chalk finish<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A gesso chalk finish creates a vintage appeal. The white gesso is additionally useful for toning down extremely bold colors and excessively glossy surfaces.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use gesso for <\/span><b>layering<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Gesso is useful in bringing out the focus or subject of a multi-layered artwork.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gesso_on_Furniture\"><\/span>Gesso on Furniture?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Gesso on furniture allows for mixing premium laminates, luxurious veneers, and other substrates to enhance elegance and style. The use of gesso on furniture traveled from Italy to Great Britain and influenced William and Mary&#8217;s furniture designs. Gesso increased the use of gilding to accentuate the naturally beautiful tones of walnut. The wood is carved first prior to applying gesso. The more intricate and complicated carvings are created after coating with gesso.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":6830,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-glossary"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.0.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Gesso is a white base used to prep surfaces prior to painting.
