Oil Painting 101 - Fundamental Information for beginners

This is my 3 hour lecture that I gave for the atelier students at ARA Boston. While oil painting can feel overwhelming, it's extremely enjoyable when you know what to use and why.
Things I cover:
- washing brushes
- what is paint?
- safety concerns
- fat over lean/drying time
- where to start
- getting to know your tubed paints
- and more!
