Gesso

• Art Board Black Gesso is a primer consisting of a mixture of chalk, gypsum, pigment, and binder used to prepare surfaces for painting.
• It provides a smooth, absorbent surface that allows paint to adhere effectively.
• Black Gesso, as the name suggests, is gesso that has been tinted black.
• Artists often use black gesso as a base layer when working with certain techniques or styles, such as acrylic or oil painting where a dark underpainting is desired.
• It can create depth and enhance the vibrancy of colours applied on top.
• Additionally, the black surface can be useful for creating dramatic effects or emphasizing contrast in artwork.
• Artboard Black Gesso is available in 500ml and 1 liter tubs.
