So with zero practice and pretty much never attempting any sort of a serious painting since I was a kid (I'm 27 now) and fresh off a Bob Ross binge, I decided to buy an oil paint set and attempt an oil paint. I was actually pretty impressed with myself for a first-timer: A couple of errors I knew afterward: first, I didn't mix the base paint coat of liquid white enough, which meant the paint was a little runny and caused for some issues blending it with other color. Second, it may have been made worse by error 1, but my knife work needs serious improvement (which is why the mountain looks not so great, and that apparent landslide was supposed to be a trail). I imagine a flat palette will go a long way to help that. My fan brush technique improved over the course of the painting which is why the trees look better as you go down the painting. Any other thoughts? Also, is there a way to speed up the drying of this at the surface level? I painted this Monday and it's still a little wet to the touch.
