Now can we paint on both sides of a page if we apply gesso on both sides?

Hi,do we have to put gesso everytime before doing an acrylic painting on paper

[@BornAdroit]

Its not compulsory. In case of acrylic painting, gesso is applied to give various textures to the surface you are painting on. Some people like rough surfaces, some like smooth depending on the subject of their painting. So it completely depends on you whether you want to use gesso or not. Gesso is mostly applied on paper in case of oil painting as the oil in the paint tends to seep into the paper and gesso prevents this from happening. I hope this helped.
