What sizes are these pics and what brand of oils you use I used Windsor and newton my self and a good tip is to use lighter fluid to thin them down as it drys a lot faster.
I stopped working with terps some 10 years ago. Not healthy and especially a problem during winter as I always paint in the living room. Then you can't ventilate. But it's very unhealthy regardless. And cleaning brushes is a nightmare, having to store all the cleansing terps separately and taking it away for proper disposal.
So I changed to water soluble oils.
I know I should not rinse brushes still in the kitchen, but yeah...
It took getting used to, things I could do with terps I cannot really do anymore as the viscosity is so different.
Big advantage is that it's dry in 1-2 weeks. As in dry.
Oh, I do at times use acrylics these days. Depends on the subject. I have not posted any of those, unless I posted the horses.
But I started a new range which includes functional nudity. These boards don't even allow posting a Tarot card with breasts exposed so I cannot post those paintings either.
A shame as some are brilliant.
Sizes... these days I go for 60 x 50, in the past often 50 x 40. But I have done some larger, some smaller too.
But now only do 60 x 50.
