Autumn is a beautiful time of year in the city, and I love visiting the park during this season. The oranges and reds created by nature are so vibrant and beautiful. These colors, imposed over the canvas like a backdrop of the city, create a breathtaking setting… one that is further enhanced with the sweet aroma of warm honey-roasted nuts wafting through the evening chill.

Oil Paintings for Sale – An Indelible Piece of Art History
Oil painting is a technique that has been used for centuries to create captivating pieces of art. The origins of oil painting date back to the 7th, but in the 15th century in the Netherlands, where painters used linseed oils to bind pigments together in paint, it grew in popularity. Their method allowed for a progressive yet subtle layering of colours, creating a depth and luminosity that was previously impossible. The technique quickly spread throughout Europe, and by the 16th century, it became the most prominent method of painting.
Oil Painting – A Versatile Medium That Stands the Test of Time
Oil painting is renowned for its ability to create an array of textures and effects. Its slow-drying properties give it a unique capacity for blending and layering colours, producing luminosity and great depth. Furthermore, oil paints can be used in thick or thin layers, creating several different textures from soft to impasto.
Through the centuries, artists have adopted and developed the technique to create some of the most acclaimed works of art in history. These famous oil paintings include Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night, and Rembrandt van Rijn's The Night Watch.
Because oil painting is a slow process that requires the artist to wait for a layer to dry before moving on to the next, artists can work and rework their canvas until it is complete. This meticulous process gives an oil painting its archival stability, ensuring the vibrancy and beauty of the piece lasts for generations.
