[@moeandco]

I’m so glad I watched the whole video bc I was gonna ask about coloring gesso before application. I’ve tried paint, water soluble sprays and gel crayons but nothing really worked. I hadn’t thought of mica powder. That will work great I think. Tysm for sharing💖

[@KerenTamir]

oh goood!! yes mica powder or the lindy's magicals work best for this. anything in powder form that doesn't dilute it more

[@wtglb]

This is interesting and beautiful!

@@KerenTamir I can tell we're going to have a lot of fun together!! I've done altered book, collages and so forth for years but have never used gesso. It's already on my shopping list and I can't wait to dive in. Ideas are running through my head like crazy!

Great video. Thank you! Yes, Gesso is fantastic. And it`s so easy to make. When you use a lot of it, You can save a lot of money by making your own Gesso. :)

[@KerenTamir]

Yes for sure I have a recipe in one of my videos

[@moec1133]

I love the end results! You make it look so effortless. I do have a few questions for you though. What do you recommend a new beginner of mixed media do to build up their mixed media supplies? Are there certain sites or stores you recommend looking at? Are there beginner essentials that are a must? I want to incorporate mixed media into my art but I get overwhelmed when trying to figure out what art supplies I’d like to get.

[@KerenTamir]

Hi Moe, thanks so much! I recommend to get white gesso and gel medium as a beginner. those are the ones I use the most. I list all the supplies below in the description as those are the stores and products I recommend. You will also need something to add color like watercolors or acrylic paints. it depends on the style you like. I would start with those two and then the 3rd one I'd recommend is modelling paste. but if you get a thick white gesso you can use it as modeling paste. Hope that helps. you can watch more of my videos. I have some that explain each product separately like All about gesso, All about gel etc

[@moec1133]

@@KerenTamir Thank you for the recommendations, I will definitely check out your other videos 😁

[@beatricecreations84]

merci beaucoup

[@teresa-ux8db]

Very cool 😎 Do you ever make your own gesso? If so will you make a tutorial for that? 🤩

[@KerenTamir]

yes I do, I have a long form video on how to make it or this short one here I published a few weeks ago: kzbin.infoNucp2BR1ZL0?feature=share

[@annekeschep8148]

Thank you Keren, I learned a few new things about gesso. Do you always use white?

[@KerenTamir]

thanks Anneke, no I don't always use white, I used to use a lot of black to cover 3D projects so I can add metallics and black is great for metallic products. I also use clear gesso however I find the glear gesso is very liquidy so it cannot be used through a stencil and since its clear, it cannot fix mistakes . However clear gesso is great for prepping a surface. Hope this helps!

[@annekeschep8148]

@@KerenTamir Yes, this helps a lot, thanks 👍
