Common questions about oil paintings on Kunstplaza
What is oil painting?
Oil painting is a painting technique in which colors using oil -based colors are used. Pigments are mixed with a drying oil as a binder and applied to a canvas. The most common types of oil in the oil paint are linseed oil, walnut oil, poppy seed oil and thirting oil.
The choice of oil influences the properties of the color and the end result of the work of art. Different oils can lead to greater yellowing or influence the drying time.
Oil paints, in which the color pigments are dissolved in oil, were used for the first time in the 13th century in Northern Europe for table paintings and later also popular in Italy, where they were increasingly used on canvas. Oil paints dry slowly and can be mixed on the canvas, diluted or structured transparently.
This flexibility has made it a popular medium for artists for centuries. Artists originally mixed their own colors; It was only from the 1840s that finished colors were commercially available in lockable containers.
