In reading some of your posts about gessoing over an old painting...you don't use an acrylic gesso over an oil do you? Are you using a gesso made for oil paintings? Just wondering or if you sand them down enough that an acrylic gesso is used. I enjoyed the post about how you cut your boards and the above painting in yellow is wonderful. Charles Sovek has a yellow house painting on his site that is a favorite..if the site is still up as I haven't looked in awhile.
