Texturing a canvas before painting video



Stretch or rip cheesecloth... apply to canvas with gesso

Tear tissue paper and glue it down with white gesso.. put tissue underneath and on top to get wrinkles.

Put a stencil (one without a design - use all or just parts of the stencil) down and either use gesso to get texture or modeling paste applied with spackling knife.... just go for random texture

Can use free form spackling ... do edges

Get all air bubbles out of paper



Put Gesso in a squeeze bottle and drizzle on canvas

use lids

stamps
can use random spackling or modeling paste
