•    If you have a solid time getting the paint off of your hands, baby oil or olive oil works really well. Wear rubber gloves, then you need not worry about the paint getting on your hands.
•    If you decide to purchase the primary colors, squeeze a spot the size of a dime of Cadmium Yellow, Cadmium Red, and Ultramarine Blue on your palette, spacing them as far apart as you can, since you were dotting the points of a triangle. Now put a portion of the Titanium White about the size of a nickel in the center.
•    A suggested 10-tube palette is Cadmium Red, Alizarin Crimson, Cadmium Orange, Cadmium Yellow, Viridian, Ultramarine Blue, Phthalo Blue, Dioxazine Purple, small Mars Black, and large Titanium White.
•    A great thing to begin with is to use primary colors to create various shades of gray from white to black, and paint in black and whiteThis gives you a  chance to know the  value and contrast.  
•    The thinner/oil mix seems to last longer than just the thinner between cleaning, and when it gets really cloudy, it doesn’t split.
•    If you leave brushes covered in paint for a long time, pour some thinner in a bucket or tray, and work the brushes with the thinner until the paint loosens and comes off. If you are still having a rough time getting the paint off, dry the thinner off, and work the bristles in the palm of your hand with a little bit of GOOP hand cleaner and also make sure you clean your brushes well before you start painting again.
•    Try making a painting using only your palette knife to paint with it and the results are so interesting.
•    When painting outside, make sure that your canvas and your palette are not in direct sunlight. It is better to shade your canvas and palette because if you paint with the canvas in direct sunlight, it will cause you to mix your colors wrongly.
•    Also when painting outside, carry plenty of paper towels and a plastic bag you can tie to your easel for your waste. Try sketching your subject in a canvas first with a lot of thinner and little bit of Raw Sienna. This will help you stay focused when painting outside.
•    A limited palette is recommended when painting outside as well. You can mix the colors you need and need not  drag all of your paints out into the field.
