oil painting

Sun Jan 13, 2008, 9:39 AM
Patience is not a virtue I hold very well. Oil painting is one medium that demands nothing but patience. So my trick to allow the time needed to wait for paint to dry is to work on several paintings at once. Then all you have to do is know when to stop. And working on another painting stops you from putzing on something that needs to chill. And this has worked for a while. But lately I have grown frustrated with length of time to complete a painting, and I have been considering going back to acrylic.

But oil is way to vibrate and versatile to let it go.

So I bought glykid today. It is suppose to quicken the process of glazes drying from a week to twenty-four hours. Well, we will see.

Right now I am going to makes some cookies. boo yah. I heart cookies.
