What is one major use of adding gel medium to acrylic paint?

Correct answer: Increasing paint body and texture

Gel medium is an acrylic binder-based material that increases the body of paint and can support raised, sculptural, or impasto-like marks. Depending on its formulation, it may also alter transparency or gloss. Option A is correct because the medium adds material and texture rather than erasing paint or converting it into watercolour. It has no function related to cutting the canvas.
