Introduction to Oil Painting Materials
In this lesson, we step into the practical side of painting by introducing the essential oil painting materials you’ll be working with. From brushes to surfaces, from oil to paint handling, every tool has a role in shaping your process and your results.
You’ll get familiar with a simple, effective setup that supports clarity and control, including your palette, your medium, and the surfaces you’ll paint on.
Think of this as preparing your workspace and your mindset. The goal is to remove friction, so you can focus entirely on seeing, mixing, and painting with intention.
And yes, don’t forget the coffee.
