I just bought my first batch of artist oil paints and I want to give them a short with regards to painting faces. I have heard they are easier to work with and look better upon completion.

Do any of you have any tips or links to painting faces with artist oils?

I think the first thing you want to do is check out these links to articles on HF:

HF Oil Painting forum
Painting faces with Oils by John Pradarelli
Painting a bust in oils - link thread
Basics of Painting Figures with Oil Paints by Craig Whitaker
Mixing Oil Paints by Craig Whitaker
Color Mixing with Oils: Part 2 by Craig Whitaker

HTH, and hope to see your progress in the HF oil painting forum

thanks for the links!
