I was wondering if it's possible to put gesso on some water color paper I have that is 98# (i don't know what the 98# is identifying about the paper, is it thickness or something?)
I picked some up the other day and tried painting it on a piece of paper taped around all 4 sides to a piece of cardboard that I paint on and when I was done the piece of paper looked like curtains because of how much it warped. Did I put it on too thick? is there something I can do to the paper to make it work better? like gluing two pieces together or something? any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
