Does this gesso dry matte black? i'm looking for something that is "chalky" matte when dry. thx!

It dries flat black, but it does not look like a chalkboard. It is pure black.

can this gesso be used for oil painting?

It can be used as a priming layer for oil painting. The Golden website is full of useful information on their materials.
