Basically thats it, i want to have a painting (done in oil paints) to be dry as quick as possible, but its quite thick, and i was wondering wheter heating it, blow drying, freezing or anything worked to dry them quicker!How do you get oil paints to dry quicker?
sorry...once its up there its over in terms of speeding the drying. Putting a drying agent on top will not affect the lower layers. Heating will only damage the bond between pigment and medium (oil) - think of cooking the fat out of bacon.
Oil doesn't dry it hardens by oxidation.How do you get oil paints to dry quicker?
Lucas painting butter (available at Jerry's Artarama) mixed with oil paint speeds drying time. Archival Oil Medium I think will help too. Use one or the other. But the painting butter can also be used for impasto paintings.
You are get oil paints in reasonable price in the following website.
