Oil Painting Process and Tips

Oil Painting Steps and Tips for Beginner and Intermediate Painters.  This is a step-by-step approach to painting.  It is a process that I currently use when making paintings. In my job as a teacher I'm often creating tutorials for students.  I created this partly as a way to explain the art making process to myself and partly because I like to share useful things with people.  This is totally free to use and I'm not trying to sell you a course. (I get those kind of ads on social media all the time so in case you do too I wanted you to know this isn't one of those.)

 

 

If you find this information is helpful you can bookmark this page for yourself to come back to.  Or if you find a way to print the information out go for it!  I've given a basic idea of each step but I know there's much more to each step that can be delved into.  You could potentially look at each step and then research it more on your own.  If you're ever tempted to get right into the details of a painting first and then find that your proportions are all off and lots of things are going wrong maybe steps will help.
