OIL PAINTING MATERIALS. To get started you need oil paints, brushes, a place to mix your colors, a tool to mix them with and a surface to paint on. Plus you want a way to clean up. The ingredients are easy to find and you don't need a lot of them. You can do a lot with a little. Good brushes and good paints are easier to use and go farther than the cheap ones.
Usually, a quality latex or water-based paint will be sufficient to fulfill your painting needs. However, in some circumstances, it may be better to use an oil or alkyd-based paint. Quality interior latex paints provide better long-term flexibility, that is, resistance to cracking and chipping.
