Thank you, it really helps to see someone actually make it! I'm sorry to hear you were sick! I will pray for you!
I sift mine using a big cooking metal sifter into the liquids, it's just like baking cakes!!! Takes any little chunks or particles out!
Clear Gesso Recipe starts @ 18.30
isn't that technically liquid clear? ;=)
Stacy, I love how you reuse everything you can. Like you parchment paper being reused after tea dying. Excellent!
You probably dont care at all but does anyone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account??
I was dumb forgot my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me!
@Benjamin Ahmed Instablaster :)
@Zahir Parker Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and im trying it out now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Zahir Parker It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you really help me out !
@Benjamin Ahmed You are welcome xD
I like that I can see this actually being made. I have some marble dust & will give your recipe a go. Thank you for this well done video☺️
No problem for me your timing is perfect,I like laid-back relaxed good videos,And that's exactly what you giveAnd even more,Thank you for the great info on making gesso,Grateful artist. Peace
You explain so well!! Best I have seen for making gesso.
I made this and it works GREAT !!!! Thank You
You can also use calcium carbonate at Amazon with free shipping! Using distilled water will decrease the chance of mold!
yes i started getting it there when the prices dropped below what it was on dickblick.com in the past year. And yes, good thinking... distilled water is a good idea if you live somewhere that you tend to get mold in things. I havent had that problem as of yet thankfully.
Thanks for sharing Stacey x
You are an artist. GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS.
Thank you. I am definitely making some.
I love the updated recipe and I think I will have to update mine! I will link back to you!! The thicker the better!!
love it, made my own with baby powder, i will try your, you are great!!
Awesome info. Thank you
super thanks a lot for sharing
Thank you for this video! Definitely will be doing this!! Hugs, Debra
I will have to start making gess next time , thank you.
out of site explanation ...thank you sooooooo much!
If you store your gasso upside down your settling will be at the top. Making it easier to stir.
Thank you! 👍
Stacy, you are such a Fun and Talented Person!!!! Your Video's are so easy to understand. Would love to see a video on how to cut mixed media postcards properly. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. I have my own Motto: No Fingers, No Crafting. Hugs:)
LOL you crack me up! haha Love you girl!
Jayne Sills 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
jane you are wonderful... love you girl... ❤
Hey Jayne...don't forget you promised me one of those fingers....oh, um, Hey Stacy, didn't see you there!! =P
OH NO I WILL RUN OUT OF FINGERS!!!!
Love ya too, Malika!!!
Just love yr commentary. Usually it annoys me. Great video. Thanks
very informative! Dickblick also has the carbOthello pencils from 12-pack to 60-pack. They
are made by Stabilo.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!
Thank you.
Where do you get the marble dust? JK!!! LOL
would suggest that a dedicated whisk be part of your fork/spoon whisking entourage. NOTHING mixes better than a whisk. I use it for household paint as well.
Now that answered my question on your old video haha
Thanks I am making some tomorrow. I ordered marble dust from Amazon it is prime so no shipping fee.
Thank you!! You helped me a lot
Also you can use baking soda
+be careful. dont brethe that marble dust... take it from an old stone mason........NOT GOOD......
i dont... i use such small quantities compared to what you did, Im talking tablespoons compared to 25lb bags dumbed into a big tub to be mixed...and i make sure it goes into the liquid immediately without being stirred up much...so I am not worried.
You can purchase marble dust and calcium carbonate at Walmart
not sure thats at every walmart because Ive never seen it there. Calcium carbonate is not white, its an ivory color so you dont want that, you definitely need the marble dust specifically and ive not see that at my walmart. What brand is it and in what department? Ive looked in the hardware dept and craft departments and never seen then :(
Do you think there is any benifit to food processing the paint glue and water together with the marble dust in the food processer?
not really... i mean i guess you could but the clean up would be a pain i would think. Let me know if you try it but I dont think it would make the marble dust any smaller once it is mixed with liquids.
watching number 2 video on gesso..new Subscriber click. bell,.here Better late than never,nov.2019 Thank you so much for sharing this,Starving artist.
i used it on canvass. and it cracks after dried. why?
Do you know where I can get marbles dust in England please? I know you put suplier on at beginning but shipping costs! Thank you great vids
Search Amazon UK for 'calcium carbonate' and you'll find it :)
@Carol Gibbons wrong again carol... do NOT tell people to use Spackle for their art projects. Spackle is meant for construction work... NOT for crafting. Spackle has other chemicals/ingredients in it that makes it more harmful than regular texture pastes..,... like silica, mica, talc, etc. Especially in its dry form, its not good to be inhaling that. Thats why when spackling or sanding the spackle or join compound, they say to wear a respirator.
Stop giving advive about construction items for use in crafting without knowing the difference. This is ART not construction.
Also, marble dust is NOT expensive.... not at all. Who is going to go to home depot and buy a large 50lb bag of calcium carbonate which is a weird off white color and wouldnt work for gesso's or texture pastes, when they can get a 4lb bag of purified white marble dust for under 15 bucks.
Interesting..I might have to try it, Where can I get the rock dust? Muahahah kidding I make this all the time but I use gypsum.
First of all Carol... marble dust is NOT expensive. Calcium carbonate and marble dust, although the same thing.... they are different in some ways. Calcium carbonate is a very off white/tan color....if used in gesso's and paints, the color would be less than desirable. Marble dust is calcium carbonate that has been heated to change the PH, which whitens it. So if its slightly more than buying calcium carbonate, that is why....however, like I said, straight calcium carbonate would not work for gesso's and chalk paints, etc.
Gypsm IS calcium carbonate, as I explained to you in your first comment. Again, varying the ph levels changes the properties of it. A 4 pound bag of marble dust is around 15 dollars. Not very expensive considering how much you get and for typical crafter/artists needs, it would last quite a long time. The process of changing calcium carbonate into marble dust would be a hassle and the price difference isnt that significant especially considering a lot of places that sell calcium carbonate want you to buy a minimum of 25 or more lbs which then makes the shipping prices outrageous.
I know this because I have bought regular straight calcium carbonate before.
Im sorry you felt it was your duty to take what your husband taught you, which might be correct for construction purposes, but not for crafts/art uses, and waste your time trying to teach something that it seems you dont know squat about yourself.... to people in MY comments of MY video, while condescending me along the way. If you have something to teach people... use your own youtube account to do so in the future. Make some videos teaching all the wonderful things your husband has taught you. But its extremely rude to do so in the comments of someone elses video.
I wasn't sure where to find the marble. Lol
Can't find marble dust on dickblick anymore. This is 2022 so maybe they stopped selling it, who knows. Will look elsewhere, but thanks for the instructions! Sounds like it'll be perfect for what I need!
I have read others use Plaster of Paris. Have you tried that or is the Marble Dust best?
My experience has been that the marble dust works best, but as always, if that's all you have, I would use it!
Marble dust is definitely better because it is the actual ingredient in real gesso. :)
In the spirit of 'use what you have' Plaster of Paris is okay - but it won't make CLEAR gesso. It has too much pigment of its own. That said, I over-did my first batch of gesso (too much marble dust) and it never needed paint. That stuff is W-H-I-T-E. Turns out the recipe I used is intended to cover and smooth sculpture ;)
So I make it clear to add pigments as I go?
Yes
if I use wood glue and gypsum powder is it ok?
I honestly do not know.. you would have to try and see how it works :)
And I have used regular lotion
Stacy why can't you use the washable school glue? That's what I got and made gesso with before I saw this video.
Becuase it's washable- IOW - not permanent. You may have problems with very liquidly mediums on it.
Thanks for asking my question and thanks for the answer!!
What is the name of the White Paint you use ? Didn't see the label
blick brand acrylic paint... get it at dickblick.com
Block has many kinds of white acrylic... which is the preferred version?
Where can I get marble dust lol 🤗
Bigger Art Supply Stores or Amazon
What is marble dust? is this plaster of Paris ??
No. Because it's the filler. The plaster would dry super fast so it only work if you're using a super small project while the marble doesn't dry like that. But you can use powdered chalk in place of the marble powder whether it's colored or white whether you buy drawing chalk and smash it up yourself or buy powdered chalk 🤷 either way the chalk would replace the marble powder
Why not put all ingredients in the food processor?
Because its so small it wouldnt fit them all very well, and it would likely make a mess lol If I had a bigger one, I would! But I still initially have to just put the powder in to process it separately so it breaks down a bit... if it was suspended in liquid, it wouldnt break down as well. :) Its kind of like why you dont put flour through the sifter after its been mixed with the wet ingredients, it just wouldnt work out as well :)
Why can't we just use chalk paint instead of gesso? Also, why can't we substitute some plaster of paris?
I use Calcium Carbonate
Because the plaster of Paris dries too fast when you mix it with the water and it sets which I imagine is different than chalk which is always water soluble regardless of whether or not it dries and is rehydrated
I am new at this, but WHERE is the description below? I must be missing something.....sorry.... :(
Carol Burnett click on the video title and it opens the description. Same for all UA-cam videos.
below the video it will say "Published on May 24, 2017" and you will see the start of the description... if you click on "Show More" right below that, it will enlarge the box and show the full description. Hope this helps!
Should I do this? I gesso
😆😆😂😆
where do i get marble dust??? lmao!!!!!
lol
Get Calcium Carbonate, it’s the same thing
@Carol Gibbons Carol, Im not sure what questions Im being asked that youre referring to? Im not "winging" anything, as you put it. I answer things based on what I have learned. Im sorry its not good enough for you, I was unaware I needed to know the chemistry of every little thing I used in my diy/crafts. I know enough about marble dust to do what I need to do. Besides, plater of paris is not a combo of gypsum AND calcium carbonate....
Gypsum IS calcium carbonate, just heated which changes the PH and then it becomes calcium oxide which is what dry plaster is.
But thank you for your unnecessary response to my video.
Iz this plaster of Paris??
No. Because it's the filler. The plaster would dry super fast so it only work if you're using a super small project while the marble doesn't dry like that. But you can use powdered chalk in place of the marble powder whether it's colored or white whether you buy drawing chalk and smash it up yourself or buy powdered chalk 🤷 either way the chalk would replace the marble powder
can you make it with baking soda or baby powder ?
Baby Powder has Magnesium, it is not apropiated.
A lot of baby powder, especially Johnson & Johnson brand contains asbestos, which is a carcinogen.
Yes.
The babypowder at the dollar store is corstarch now no talc
Oh, I forgot, where do you get that marble dust? .......Just kidding! Dickblick.com.... Got it! 😉
🙂👍🏻🐩

Are you nervous?
I just made this. The white acrylic paint I was using was so watery that I used part white impasto and no water, then added the glue, all mixed fine... then the marble dust. It was like a science experiment gone wrong! As it started growing up like a giant marshmallow, I was racing to the kitchen sink. I got there just before it oozed up over the edge and down the sides. I've tried to google what could cause reaction this but can't find anything. Any idea what happened?
OMG lol I dont have any clue what could have caused...what is white impasto??? I would imagine maybe that was the culprit?
THICK paint - the kind you'd use with a pallet knife. I don't know the chemistry of impasto - but this does sound like an acid/base reaction (like baking powder).
Were you using Acrylic Impasto gel or Oil Impasto cause some are an alkaloid base. Usually impasto is made by adding paint to a thickening additive. Def sounds like an acid/base issue.
are you sure you were using marble dust?
Kind of getting frustrated when someone say DIY gesso but they use acrylic white paint... i want to know where to get the acrylic binder and titanium white also.
Did you not watch this?
I wanted to order marble dust for 9.00 from dickblick.com and he wanted 44.00 shipping don't think so lol
Sharon Lehmann Try Amazon. That's where I got mine several months ago.
Baby powder can be substituted, and it works almost as well.
Kelly Rickman thanks I will try this first 👍
Lorraine Watkins thanks I will try the baby powder first then Amazon 👍
If youre no in the US, then dickblick wont be the place to buy it. Im not sure where people in other countries should get it...sorry :(
Thank you but do you really have to be do lengthy? It's very difficult for people with ADD to stay focused. Just get to the point without wasting so much time. I don't want to be mean, just saying
if you arent happy with the length of my videos, then dont watch. There are other videos that will show you the same thing. I too have ADD but if im watching a video that I think is too lengthy, I just use the slider bar to skip to where I need to go rather than leave a comment because it doesnt work with MY mental issues.
Why not just buy already made gesso?
It's expensive! It really adds up $ when you paint a lot and when practicing.
way to expensive! When i make it, it costs me about 1.00 for an entire jar... when i buy it, that same jar is 15 bucks!
Amy Barnes Hi.
U can adjust "grit" to ur own preference.
i.e....less/more...Non absorb/absorb...etc.
Amy Barnes. It's expensive
