This is a great idea for making a very special gift for your child's teacher. Take a plain - glass plate, pictures of her students and a class group photo. Place the kids pictures on the back of the plate around the rim and "Gesso" them on. Put the class photo in the middle of the plate and "Gesso" it to the plate. Give the whole plate another good "Gesso-ing" and smooth out any bubbles carefully. Then watch that Teacher smile from ear to ear when your child hands her this one of a kind gift! :)
I went to Dick Blick's website. Seems to be somewhat of a glue. There's different types I guess.
