Hi Phil,Thanks so much for this teaching blog. I’ve had the challenge of summer greens and washed out, high noon painting for years. Really good advice. Anyway about this one, I noticed the same thing about Liquitex Acrylic Gesso. My paint acted like jello, slipping around on top of the surface. I tried out the Liquitex student grade gesso and it was exactly the opposite. It gave my panels a sandpaper like finish that sucked the paint out of the brush. As a no cost experiment, I’ve mixed the two together about 50/50 and so far am liking the results. It makes me wonder how/if they test these products. Thanks again.
Larry
