MATISSE MEDIUMS

MM10 GESSO

A great permanent flexible primer for canvas, board or even paper. An intense white ground with an excellent tooth for easy paint manipulation. Matisse Gesso is a water-based product and can be thinned down with water. Use equal parts of water to Matisse Gesso when working on raw canvas/linen. If working on canvas, Matisse Gesso will tighten the canvas, making a firmer ground to paint on.

Matisse Background Colors are also a highly pigmented "low tooth" gesso for use when a colored background is required
