Begin with a sketch on your canvas using paint watered down with turpentine (or odorless solvent). This will dry quickly and you can paint over it fairly soon. Your sketch will block in your main shapes and you can work out your composition and lights/darks at this time. If you make a mistake you can just wipe it off with a rag while it's wet, or scrub it off with thinner if it's dry.





Choose a limited number of colours - one each yellow, blue, red and maybe an earth tone, plus white. Many beginner painters make the mistake of using every colour in the box, and that's why their paintings often lack cohesiveness.





You can mix colours on your palette, or right on the canvas by dragging one colour through another you've already painted.





You can choose to mix your paint with turpentine to thin it, or linseed oil which will slow your drying time (days) but give you a nice transparent glaze, or a mixture of both. If you're impatient (like me) you can choose an alkyd medium such as Galkyd or Liquin to mix with your paint to speed your drying time to about 6 hours.





Glazes give you a glowing transparent finish that seems as if you're looking into glass. Glazes dry slowly and you need to use transparent colours for this - check your paint tubes and that information should be on the label.





Don't paint thick layers over wet paint... the bottom layers need to dry before you go over them. Your paint will crack otherwise. White titanium dries the slowest, keep this in mind and paint white as one of your final layers.

Hey, good luck with your art! Presuming that you are comfortable with drawing and some other medium such as watercolor or pastel or acrylic, and just want to master the technique of oil, this is not difficult. Just use good materials from the beginning, and for your health, make sure that you use genuine turpentine (ask your chemist or doctor) and refined linseed oil. For continuing work you should use a mixture of the oil and the turpentine, 1:3 parts. In pigments I recommend 10 colors: black, white, 3 earth colours, green plus blue, 2 reds and yellow. For more advanced techniques, such as glazing and impasto, join a class. Only ever choose a teacher whose work you admire.





The same applies to learning about art and drawing in general. It is possible to teach yourself a lot, but it will take you many years and you will still miss many simple solutions to problems.
I advise you to work on oil-primed canvas, as opposed to acrylic primed canvas, as it is easier.
