Coat background with acrylic paint.
Drying oil paintings quickly.
But if you want the oil painting to dry off quickly for some reason we suggest considering a flat surface.
Circulate the air in the room with a fan.
Oil paint is loved by fact it doesn t dry as fast as most paints.
Unfortunately some pigments take a lot longer to dry.
Pointing a fan at your oil painting won t help significantly speed the drying time in the same way as it would a watercolor painting but having good circulation in the room will help the oxidation process to happen more quickly.
You might be wondering why we re suggesting the use of acrylic for a painting that should solely rely on oil paints.
Titanium white for example may take weeks for it to dry.
If you want to paint fast paint with water based paints like acrylics.
Oil paint will take a full year to completely dry.
This means you can paint wet on wet.
Oil paints by their very nature don t dry with any speed at all.
