Oil paints are common in art and have been used for centuries. Oil paintings probably began in northern Europe during the Renaissance in the 15th century. The work with oil paints is done in a layered method, with the paint drying between layers. Oil paint does not dry out quickly, thus making it possible to create interesting color transitions and ratings. A layer of oil paint will dry within a few days to a week. The oil paints are very concentrated paints, so in painting with oil paints, diluents, linseed oil and turpentine are used. These materials help the oil paints to glide easily on the canvas, blend into desired shades, control the level of transparency, clarity and opacity of the paint.

Oils are useful in art therapy and have therapeutic potential for the creator. Oil paints allow a sense of release through quick painting of large surfaces in long movements. Due to lack of skill in working with oil paints and its properties, such as the fluidity of the paint on top of the painting, there may be other uncontrollable and planned situations that evoke negative emotions like loss of control and discomfort and positive emotions like joy of new discoveries, curiosity and power. The variety of emotion expressions when working with oil paints improves the ability to be flexible and inclusive. When working with oil paints, there are repeated operations, for example dipping the brush in turpentine and oil, taking a paintbrush and wiping with a cloth. This kind of ritual is for the creator an anchor for finding an inner rhythm, as well as a framework that gives self-confidence, organization, order and setting boundaries, and hence for deeper emotional work.
