Can I use Gesso on canvas after I have done my pencil work on it? I forgot to use Gesso at first place and did the pencil work of what I am gonna do on canvas with acrylics on it
Yes it will! Once the gesso is dry, you can spritz the paper with water and close your sketchbook. If you put a book on top while it dries, the paper will dry flat.

Yes you can! If you add a little water to the gesso it'll be transparent enough to still see your pencil work.

Can we achieve smooth blanding in sketch..after applying jesso on canvas
Yes, but I recommend sanding the gesso until it's a smooth texture
Won’t gesso buckle the paper?
Ah, you answered it 🤭 sprits with water & close the sketchbook, or stretch it like Baumann does I guess. 🤔
