PREPARATION - Click here to visit my new EBAY STORE!
GESSOING -- PREPARING THE CANVASES TO PAINT
In the studio - getting ready for some winter work -- Mix gesso (usually acrylic) with Payne's Gray acrylic paint - thin with water to a consistency that will not leave heavy brushstrokes on the canvases -- let dry for a few days before applying paint. In the meantime, click above to visit my new EBAY STORE - Donna Clair Art. Stay tuned!
