Troubleshooting

Brushes feel stiff after use.

Clean brushes thoroughly with brush cleaner or mineral spirits, and then wash them with soap and water. Reshape them with your fingers after washing.

Paint is too thick to blend.

Add a small amount of refined linseed oil to the paint to thin it. Mix well on your palette before applying.

Colors appear dull or muddy.

Ensure that your brushes are clean when mixing colors. Experiment with different color combinations and avoid overmixing.

  • May require additional supplies: Artists may need to purchase additional items like a separate easel or more brushes as they progress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unpack all the components. Refer to the beginner's guide for basic instructions. Set up your workspace with adequate lighting and ventilation, as oil paints require solvents for thinning and cleaning.

Compatibility: This set is compatible with standard oil painting techniques. The included palette and brushes are suitable for use with oil paints. The paints can be thinned with refined linseed oil or other suitable solvents, not included.

Care: Clean brushes immediately after each use with brush cleaner or mineral spirits, and then wash them with soap and water. Store paints and solvents in a cool, dry place. Ensure proper ventilation while painting. Clean the palette after each use to prevent paint from drying and mixing.
