FAQs about Primers & Gesso

A primer is the foundation of your painting- it is the background surface of your art piece. The primer operates like a coating that separates your painting from the support. Its main job is to seal and protect the support, such as keeping linseed oil from permeating through, while also providing a proper surface for multiple layers of paint. One example of a primer is Gesso.

Gesso is a primer that readies the surface to accept acrylic paint. It is similar to white acrylic paint, but thinner. It dries hard, stiffening and texturing the surface.
