Grounds / Priming
At my school we have 6oz fine/portrait linen and after priming it with one coat of RSG and one coat of titanium oil ground, I'm having doubts about painting on it. It seems too thin and fragile. Unfortunately no one at my school prepares their own linen so I'm hoping if you could please advise.
Is 5oz+2 coats sufficent weight for a 26"x26" painting? Should I add more oil primer coats, or should I put more coats of RSG next time? I was also thinking of bulking it up with acrylic ground but then read that RSG and acrylic is a bad idea...
Unfortunately I can't glue it onto anything as I have to roll all my work for flying it home..
