Use Of  Oil Colour:

Oil colors are a popular medium for artists, offering a wide range of possibilities for creating vibrant and textured artworks. It is also mandatory to use Oil medium for oil colour as Oil does not mix with Water,  Here’s a guide on using Camel Artist Oil Colour.

Oil Colours and Mixing:

• Choose a set of high-quality oil colors from a reputable brand like Camel Artist Oil Colour 12pc x 20ml.
• Squeeze a small amount of each color onto a palette, or a non-porous surface like glass or acrylic palette, for easy access and mixing.
• Use a palette knife or a brush to mix the colors. You can create new shades by blending different colors together.

Choosing the Right Paper :

Oil colors are traditionally used on canvas. Alternatively, you can use oil painting paper, which is specifically designed for oil colors.

Preparing the Surface:

• If you’re using canvas, make sure it’s properly stretched and primed. Apply a coat of gesso (a white primer) to create a smooth and absorbent surface.
• If you’re using oil painting paper, it’s typically pre-primed, but you can add an additional layer of gesso if desired.

Additional Accessories:

• Brushes suitable for oil painting.
• Use a palette with a flat surface, such as glass or acrylic, for easy color mixing.
• Palette Knife: This tool is useful for mixing colors, applying thick paint, and creating textural effects.
• Mediums: Various oil painting mediums MUST be added to the paint to alter its consistency, drying time, or sheen. Some common mediums include linseed oil, turnip oil, Sunflower Oil

Remember,

• When using Camel Oil Painting on your work,  not to keep your painting under the sunlight, as exposure to sunlight causes cracks in the paint and yellowing due to the formation of free radicals within pigments.
• oil colors dry slowly, so be patient and allow sufficient drying time between layers.
