Tri-Art Burnt Umber Gesso

Tri-Art Burnt Umber Gesso is a warm, earth-toned acrylic ground that gives you a rich, mid-value starting point for your painting. Made in Canada by Tri-Art Manufacturing in Kingston, Ontario, it provides excellent tooth and adhesion while setting a traditional toned ground in a deep, warm brown.

Burnt umber is one of the most used toning colours in classical painting, valued for its neutralizing warmth and ability to unify a composition from the first brushstroke. This gesso lets you skip the toning step entirely and start painting directly on a surface that already has depth. Ideal for oil and acrylic painters who work with glazing, underpainting, or grisaille techniques.
