How To Paint With Oils – Q&amp;A: oil on canvas (painting)? – Oil Painting Tips Question by K K: oil on canvas (painting)? i have a more complex question, so if you’re free…can you tell me how big a canvas I need to buy and does oil mean oil pastels. what else do i need. how do you “erase” the mistakes you make. which type of pencil works best. so you just draw it all with a pencil and then use the <a href="http://www.canadagoosparka-discount.com/canada-goose-womens-parka-canada-goose-solaris-parka-c-6_8.html"><strong>canada goose down</strong></a> oil pastels and that’s it, right? i’m doing this because i want to put the painting at the end of my piece of writing, that’s why it’s important that i know how big the canvas should be because i have to scan it all later. is there anything else i can do except scanning? thanx for any reply/advice. Best answer: Answer by mister_fadThose are a lot of questions. Generally “oil” refers to “oil paints”. If you have a large painting thats beyond the size of the conventional <a href="http://www.ghdstraighteners2011-cheap.com/2010-new-ghd-butterfly-pink-p-5740.html"><strong>GHDÂ*RedÂ*lustÂ*</strong></a> scanner, you’ll want to have a graphic arts place (or printer) to scan it for you (they have large drum scanners). If you’re just getting your feet wet with oil pastels or the like, I would suggest going to your local library and checking out some “how-to” books pertaining to what you want to accomplish. As far as alternatives, there’s always digital painting. I’m an illustrator and use a program called Painter (along with a digital tablet). The program simulates pastels, oils, etc. It takes a while to learn, though, and if you don’t have the time to play with it, you may grow frustrated. There’s <a href="http://www.canadagoosparka-discount.com"><strong>canada goose discount</strong></a> an easy to use “lite” version of this program that you can download (good for 30 days) called Painter Essentials. http://www.download.com/3120-20_4.ht...&tag=srch You may have some fun with it.
