I get so excited when I get e-mails, phone calls, texts or anything about someone wanting to start oil painting! I'm almost tempted then and there to say, "come over to my studio and paint with me for hours!! (PLEASE!)" And sometimes I do! I love seeing others explore their creativity, beginning to advanced, and I especially love other artists. There are so many things to be learned from one another!
I thought I'd share a little bit about what materials to begin with, and later I'll post more about how to begin, etc. If you have any questions, please comment, contact, or send me an e-mail at sarahnightingaleart@gmail.com! I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
>>>Don't shy away from oil painting just because you've heard "it's hard." Some of the world's most beautiful and famous work have been done in oils. I think it gets a bad rep. for beginners despite it being VERY do-able, but with a few tricks here and there, it really becomes easier and easier with practice. Just you wait. You'll be making something beautiful in no time!
