Acrylic Gesso A mixture of calcium carbonate (chalk) and an acrylic binder and a white pigment. Coating a canvas with this substance prior to painting with acrylics will improve the longevity of the artwork. The application of the gesso helps the paints to go on more smoothly, and prevents them from soaking into the raw, unprimed canvas.
