Okay. Anyone that has painted with oils know it can be a little cumbersome and difficult to grasp at first. Oil paints are messy, they're stinky, you can't just wash it off your hands with water, oil paintings take forever to dry, and sometimes you just end up mixing mud (frustrating!!). Students in Art 3 started painting with oils today and check out the results (slideshow below). For most of the students, these were their FIRST oil paintings ever. Wow. I even made it MORE challenging for them in that 1) they had to stand and paint (no sitting!) 2) they had to use ONE flat brush and they only had about 45 minutes of class time to get the majority of the painting finished.
