Oils. When using oil pigments for creating a painting, the experience will be different than from using acrylics or watercolors.
Oil pigments dry slower. Which is a curse and a blessing.
Changes are easily addressed, since the pigments are slower drying but, moving forward requires a little wait so the pigments have a chance to set up before adding more.
The final results of using oils for a painting are a bit different as well.
Oils offer a creamy blend-ability that acrylics mimic but is just not the same.
Oils result in an overall luminosity that is distinctly different in quality.
A dreamier glow.
This form of painting has been popular and overall top-rated, since the 14th Century.
