30 day challenge day 17 - new problems are a sign of progress. Really

SO: freshly armed with beautifully finely-ground gesso, I tackled my next round of samples.

And I get a new problem.

Mistress Oriane had reminded me of working 'wet into wet' on gesso, rather than waiting for the gesso to dry before adding a new layer. This technique is important in other arts where you want to get a smooth even coating, like silk

I got this occasionally when I used acrylic gesso. Try either a scalpel or very fine sanding. (If you're going to scrape it down anyway, can't hurt)
