Wondering what's new in oil painting? New oil painting techniques, original paintings from exciting new artist painters and new oil painting reproductions hit the market constantly. We regularly features them, so don't miss those links in the sidebar. Don't be afraid to squeeze out a good amount of paint, especially your whites. You will be more productive if you aren't continuously stopping to squeeze out more paint. Make certain to include all of the colors you think you will need to complete that session of painting as well. Again, this will make you more productive. When adding paint to the palette, I have found that squeezing the paint out in long lines, as opposed to puddles, keeps my colors cleaner. When you have puddles of paint, they tend to get soiled by other colors when mixing. With a long line of paint, you can just take paint from the end as needed and not dirty the rest. Keep some rags or paper towels handy for wiping your palette knife clean. It's a good idea to continuously wipe your palette clean during the painting process. There is nothing more frustrating then trying to remove dried up oil paint. Keep some alcohol handy so that you can keep the mixing area of your palette clean. I hope these tips have helped.
