Product Details

Made from high quality acrylic resin with a good level of pigment strength, it can be used straight from the pot and has excellent "tooth" for film adhesion. To reduce absorbency and to boost the integrity of the film, a minimum of two coats is required when working with oils. This is a good quality gesso at an affordable price.

A bit about the brand: Founded in 1832, Winsor & Newton are one of the World's leafing brands of fine art materials and has developed a fantastic reputation for reliability, quality and product innovation.

Good covering power

16 Mar 2019 | Artylorn

I've used this brand of gesso a lot - very reliable, really good covering power. Leaves a slight brush mark texture which can be made more prominent if you wish, by applying more thickly and with directional strokes. Slightly chalky finish. Very nice to paint on - I use acrylics, but it is also suitable for oils (2 coats) or watercolour. Can add pigment to it for a tinted ground. I've also used this successfully to make collagraph plates. It has a 'tooth' that grips paint and printing ink readily. I should think you can sand it if you want a very smooth surface, but I like it as it is.

Winsor and Newton acrylic gesso

Excellent gesso primer. Use thin (dilute with water) applications in successive layers or apply thicker direct from the tub. An ideal choice for additional priming of (ready primed) stretched canvas or canvas board.
