How to Prepare a Canvas/Surface for Painting

If you are an acrylic or oil painter, listen up! I know it is tempting to dive head-first into a new project, but if you want to have more control of your paints and have a smoother look to your paintings, you should first complete these steps to prep your canvas or painting surface.

(NaturalEarthPaint.com)

Introduction to Gesso

Gesso is a primer that is applied to canvas or other painting surfaces before painting. It creates a smooth and even surface to work with. Because canvas is a fabric material, it has many bumps and ridges in its design. Other materials like wood and paper also have this issue. The textures of these surfaces can interfere with the painting process, which is where gesso comes in.

You will want to get an acrylic gesso, which will work for either acrylic or oil painting. Liquitex is a very popular option, which can be found at almost any art supplies store.

How to Use

To apply your gesso, first clean off your canvas. There can be dust and particle buildup on the canvas, so take a clean and dry brush to the canvas to brush it down.

Then, take a large brush or roller and coat the entire canvas in a thick layer of gesso. Don’t forget the edges here.

Next, use a scraper or flat surface of some kind to run over the gesso to smooth it out. Have a light touch here, but also apply enough pressure that you are hitting the top ridges of the canvas. The thickness of the gesso is up to your personal preference; if you do want more texture, then press harder when scraping.

Finally, let the gesso dry. How long this will take depends on your environment and how thick your layer of gesso is, but I recommend letting the gesso sit for at least 2 days. Take it from me, trying to paint on half-wet gesso is no fun.

This simple addition to your process will help you elevate the feel and look of your painting. Just remember, it is a good idea to have canvases prepped for when inspiration strikes!

I must say the best piece of advice I can give people wanting to start with oil paint is:

Lose the respect for the medium.

When I started with oils I thought "ooh it's the pinnacle of painting so I have to be super careful, plan everything, get all those tools and additives and... And..." — Bullshit!

Oil is the most of forgiving medium I've worked with so far. Thin it down, thicken it up, blend it on canvas if you want and if you don't like something? Let it dry and paint over it. You can't really do that with most mediums. Even charcoal and pencil are potentially harder to correct.

Tl;dr: Stop fussing, get yourself some paint and fool around 😃

#traditional art #I'm a beginner too but it's so easy to achieve great results with oil because it blends like maaagic ✨#I've also never had any issues with the paint cracking but I don't think my layers are thick enough for that
