First oil painting attempt.

So I'm having a crack at using oil paints and a palette knife for the first time.. I've always wanted to try using oil paints. These images are examples of the first layers, it's such a strange medium coming from using aerosol and acrylics. The shit doesn't mix the same way, it takes eons to dry and requires a lot of patience, which is something that I am working on acquiring....



I haven't really looked up how to use the paint "properly", I'm not sure about how to use oil paints the proper way. I just jumped into it trying some quick dirty portraits, it's pretty fun to use, it's pretty cool how it blends together, looking forward to using oil paints some more now...
