I am a pretty persnickety painter when it comes to preparations and materials, but I do think you deserve some kind of trophy for this Linda. Even the over referenced Sargent used rolls of preprimed.

I do know ONE thing about this, that you must gesso the sides as well, as they will disintegrate with time if left ungessoed.

I must see some pictures of you at work in the studio as your avatar reflects more a woman of glamour and leisure.
