Superior Quality
Artist Gesso
Made by Art
Boards™ Archival Art Supply.
|
|
|
 |
|
Acrylic Artist Gesso is made for rigid painting surfaces |
|
|
|
Art
Boards™
Artist
Panel Gesso is specially formulated for use on wood panels
and panels mounted with paper or canvas. It is the
ready to use premium ground that completely seals the
surface and perfectly prepares panels and papers for painting
and drawing. |
|
|
Art Boards™
Artist
Panel Gesso is high in refined solids with a
“triple-cream consistency”.
The creamy consistency allows for an easy time covering
surfaces.
Gesso
spreads out quickly and evenly in thick or thin coats,
giving incredible coverage in a single application. |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
The
white gesso
covers
easily without leaving obstructive brush marks or
having to rework areas. It also smoothes out perfectly
when applied with a knife, and will hold a desired texture if
brushed & cross brushed. The gesso needs no thinning, but
when mixed with water or paint it disperses quickly and
evenly. It dries fast without leaving air bubbles or
producing cracks, and it is the best sanding artist gesso
ever made. |

Art Boards™
“Acrylic Panel Artist Gesso” is unlike any other acrylic gesso.
Art Boards™ Gesso has a classic traditional quality like no other
modern acrylic gesso. It is specifically designed for use on
rigid surfaces, not for flexible stretched canvas. Its
balance is carefully formulated to have more refined dry
solids and less acrylic polymers. This perfect balance
produces a smooth gesso surface that you can feel, one that
allows for true interaction with the initial painting. |

Panel Gesso
performs like an oil primer or traditional gesso.
Art Boards™
Gesso
is not another plastic like gesso that paints just sit
on. When dry, the gesso
is easy to sand and readily absorbent, creating a
surface that is receptive and responsive with a warm and
brilliant color. Gesso can be easily tinted if a
darker colored painting ground is desired.

For artists who want to create the very best surface for painting and drawing.
With oil paints it performs like an oil
primer or traditional gesso. There is no beading when using
water base materials and it takes watercolor as if it were
paper. It also mixes well with casein paints. Pastels,
charcoal, and pencil work and rework beautifully into the
gesso surface. It is the perfect ground for all painting and
drawing materials including; oils, acrylics, egg tempera,
casein, gouache, watercolor, encaustics, murals, pastels,
charcoal, colored pencil, silverpoint, pen & ink,
airbrush, and more.

Panel
Gesso performs superbly on all rigid surfaces.
Art
Boards™ is dedicated to making the
highest quality panel gesso for use on our complete line of
archival painting supports. The artist gesso performs
superbly on all rigid surfaces including wood panels,
mounted raw and pre-primed canvas, and mounted drawing and
printmaking papers. In fact the gesso nearly disappears
when laid down on paper leaving the original texture of the
paper.
For artists
doing decorative painting, painting murals, and faux
finishing.
Painters use the mural gesso directly on the wall as
the ground for painting murals. The gesso adheres well to
unprimed sheet rock or plaster walls.
It sands to a smooth surface
without loading up the sandpaper providing an
excellent painting ground for making murals on walls.
Art
Boards™
Gesso gives decorative painters and faux finishers more control when building
layers and making subtle glazes. Smoother mural paintings
catch less dirt, are easier to clean,
and look better.
Gesso
coated
art panels
are also
available from Art Boards™.
Superbly made gesso panels coated with
Art
Boards™
Panel Gesso
can be ordered in stock and
