I did not need to gesso these canvases unless I was looking to add texture. They are study and stretched tight without give. The corners were all pulled and stapled tightly. I did not notice any funny odors. I use them for my artwork but – with a price this good, I was able to share with my nieces and nephews. The variety of sizes prevented many arguments. The paint did not bleed through the canvas. I have used them with acrylic and tempura paints. The picture is of my nephews volcano which was painted with tempura paints.
