| sunflowers in watering can 6" x 9" |
I put gesso on a bad painting, let it dry, then painted these sunflowers on the gesso. I like the texture of the paint on gessoed paper. Gesso keeps the paint from soaking in, so it lays on top and can easily be lifted off the paper to show the white again. (I lifted off some of the yellow on the flower petals.) There is also a certain glow to certain colors on gesso. I think the yellows have a glow that wouldn't have happened on regular paper.
