Hi guys!  In my article, I shared tips that will help you immerse yourself in the wonderful world of oil paints.   

I'm painting oil paintings

I have a great passion for oil paintings. I even paint portraits with oil. This material suits me so. Oil is my element.  

All colors are a mixture of dry pigment and liquid. In oil paints, the pigment is mixed with linseed oil. Flaxseed oil is an oil that dries out during the oxidation process with air. It absorbs oxygen from the air. When the oil dries, it can not be removed. Oil paints are thick. Oil paints dry very slowly. Therefore, they take a long time.  Oil paints, as they require time to dry, allow you to move them along the canvas while they are still wet. The very comfortable brushes are flat. Paints are mixed on the palette and applied to the canvas. Still there are many rules of work with oil paints. You need to choose the shades, be able to.

First, sketch the future painting with a pencil on the canvas. First - a sketch in pencil, and then - paint painting. Select the colors. Beginners sometimes find it very difficult to compare the color of the object with the color of the paint. Look at the movement of the object. You can paint any method and technique convenient for you, even if you draw parts, even layers, though.
