Thanks this really helped my relationship with my wall, it now speaks to me in the night. Nah, only joking. Please leave Youtube with a little pride intact. Actually no, keeping making these shit videos and give me a laugh.

What sort of comments are those? Leave the artist alone!!! What's this thing she's painting on anyway? Acrylic pads stuck onto wood?

Answer please, thank you :))

What does she mean when she says the Gesso is to help give it "tooth"?

[stephenm28]

@ValleyMermaid

Gesso can be used as a sealant on your canvas or it can be used so the canvas doesnt totally absorb your paint too quickly as acrylic paint dries almost instantly in some cases. It can give a bit of glide to your canvas

[Madidog123]

@TheIronBubble Not all americans. Not me.

[88riddlemethis]

@TheIronBubble I'm American and I hardly ever use that word or like using it.

[88riddlemethis]
