How do I get my oil paints to dry on my canvas?

Answer #1

Oil paints do not dry, in fact, they actually harden. Depending on the kind of oil paint you used it could take anywhere from days to weeks to be "dry"! However for it to fully dry, or rather, harden, would take much longer, months. You could try leaving it out in the sun and wind. Do not try blowdrying it, or as a friend of mine did, hairspraying it, it can cause cracks in the paint. Otherwise though, you're pretty much stuck with your oil painting wet. In the future you could try mixing your paint with Liquin which would help with the drying process.
