Description

Golden Gesso is a premium white ground for acrylic and oilpainting. It has a high loading of Titanium White that provides a bright, reflective surface for increased colour brilliance.

Golden Gesso has a creamy consistency that allows it to spread over large areas easily, with only soft brush marks. Mixing 1:1 with Golden Pouring Medium Matte creates a self-levelling gesso free of brush marks.

It can be used on canvas, paper & board, wood, and even non-receptive surfaces such as plastics and metal, with prior treatment using GAC200.

For oil painting, we recommended that at least three layers of gesso.

ABOUT GOLDEN
Golden Acrylic Colours are made by the Golden family in upstate New York. Sam Golden has been making paint in New York since the 1930s, and released the first commercially available acrylic, Magna, in 1947. Throughout the Fifties and Sixties he continued to develop his colours and mediums in close partnership with leading art practitioners. In the mid-Seventies, he attempted to retire to up-state New York, but too many artists protested that they were reliant on his products, so he started Golden Paints with his son Mark in the early Eighties.

The Golden’s pay special attention to the latest technological advances in pigment and binders, and continue to work closely with artists to develop new materials. They were the first to develop a water-tension-breaker, the first to use Quinacridone pigments, the first to develop Zinc White for acrylic, the first to use Interference colours, and their latest ground-breaking products include OPEN Acrylics and Digital Mix Media.
