Gesso is needed as a primer in painting. Most canvases are primed, but if you want to paint on wood, stone, metal, etc., you should apply gesso first. This gives you an absorbent surface on which your paint adheres very well. You should also use Gesso if you want to rework finished pictures: Instead of painting directly with acrylic paint, apply Gesso first, then you need much less color in the next layer.
