I loved gesso. I loved its thick whiteness and how it was so forgiving. I loved brushing it on heavily over my marred canvas. It made the canvas look new and clean, without a single blemish. I wish they made gesso for the soul, because if they did, I would slather it on thick. I would create a new me. I, too, would be new and clean, without a single blemish.
