  1. How do you start an oil painting on canvas? Oil painting is a famous niche of artworks. It is popular for the beauty and depth it presents in painting.

The further section has a few tips to help you start oil painting. If you wish to gain more oil painting insights, connect with JJ Artworks. We are a prominent social painting event company in MA. Collect all materials & find a safe spot The basic step is to gather all the oil painting essentials. The essential materials are- a canvas, palette, oil paints, solvents, paint brushes, easel, and paper towels. Also, find a stable place where you can do oil painting without disturbance. Make sure you paint in a well-ventilated setting, as oil paints are heavy and toxic. Prime the canvas well The further task is to prime the canvas with sheer perfection. The canvas has many pores, and it is very thick. It will soak a good amount of paint if you do not prime it. Priming the canvas adds more vibrancy to the artwork and makes it last longer. No matter whether the canvas is pre-stretched or you are stretching it, prime it well. Apply even coats of primer over the canvas to use its space. Priming improves the vibrancy of oil paintings, making it look more pigmented. Prepare an outline for painting. Do not start painting directly; it will give rough results. First, prepare an outline for your illustration, then move ahead with painting. Making a wild art or underpainting prevents all the errors. Start color application You can use thinking solvents to make colors fluid and their application smoother. Linseed oil or Liquitex are the best mediums to soften oil colours. You can also rectify the mistakes using pallet knives and sandpaper. Use a palette knife to remove the extra paint when it's wet. Go with sandpaper to correct the mistakes on dry painting.

  2. Let the painting dry. The most crucial step during oil painting is to let the oil paint dry well. Oil paintings take 18 to 24 hours to dry. Folllowing are a few extra tips for you to follow: ●Use gloves while painting as oil colors have harmful chemicals. ●Never add water to your paint for dilution. ●You can clean your brush by wiping them with a rag or solvent. Then, you can use a solution of water and detergent to wash them. ●Always use a toned canvas to add a unique touch to the painting. ●Use canvas edges to tighten the canvas to bring flawless results.
