Winsor & Newton - Artists' Acrylic Gesso
Artists' Acrylic Gesso
Prime canvases to a brilliant white surface ready for acrylics or oils
Traditional cotton canvas, hardboard panels, even masonry for murals. The formulation works equally well under oils and alkyds as it does for acrylics, making it genuinely versatile for studios working across multiple media.
Winsor & Newton builds this primer from superior-grade acrylic resin rather than vinyl or lower-quality binders that can yellow or crack over time. The result is a stable foundation that maintains flexibility as supports expand and contract with humidity changes. Dense pigmentation means you're applying actual primer, not tinted medium, coverage that lets you start painting immediately once dry rather than waiting through multiple preparation layers. Whether you're stretching canvas for a large-scale oil painting or preparing found surfaces for mixed media work, this gesso provides the professional-quality ground that serious painting demands.
