Hi Stephanie reallylove your work, I have been experimenting with D S grounds with inks etc on canvas and find that the texture of the canvas weave still shows through and I hate it am I not putting on enoigh ground, or should and more layers of Gesso before I start with the water colors and grounds,thanks for your help.
Just painting it on won't get rid of the texture unless you do do many layers and quite thickly. You also need to use sandpaper if you want to make it smooth
