Great size and good quality
I only took up art recently and after some fast track self learning I have started to collect different materials and came across gesso, which I had never heard of before. I am glad I found this one as it primes my canvasses perfectly. I have also used it to make a rextured base on a canvas and to transfer a picture on another. I intend on finding other uses for it.

Drying really quick. I used on surface which one have printed letters already, did put two coats of gesso, but when it dried completely I could see these letters showing through it. I've been using paint brush so I could see stripes after. Well probably it depends what paint brush you are using.

Good product for acrylic painting
I buy this on repeat for my acrylic paintings. I prefer this type of bottle as it seals well between uses and is easy to pour out onto my paintings. It brings out the vibrancy of the colors and provides a finishing touch. Good product!
