Street Team Challenge-Gesso



These are mine to the Street Team Challenge using Gesso. There are many more I am going to try. Go on over to the Street Team (link on sidebar) and enter. We all use gesso one way or another.

  6. I just found the Street Team gesso page yesterday, thru Lost Luggage -- I can't wait to play with all these gesso experiments, since I do use it all the time.

    Lee - I really like your leaf sample and how the green sits out away from the gessoed leaves. Sorta a colored negative. Nice! :)
