Most of all, I like it because it is forgiving! It allows you to change your mind after laying down colour. Because it dries slowly, a work can be altered and evolve. The texture and shine when it is dry has a richness and warmth.

Oil is my first love, being the first medium I've used when starting painting. And it has been my medium of choice for many years. Because it is so very rich and smooth. After I discovered acrylic, I became lazy as with acrylic everything is happening so fast. But still! You know how it is with first loves...
I am only a year late in responding to this post 😉
I like it because of its smoothness and flow. I also find it to be very intuitive for myself - I haven't found that connection in other mediums besides charcoal.
J'aime beaucoup cette expression : it is forgiving ! Une bonne raison pour aimer encore plus la peinture à l'huile. Rien n'est definitif et la possibilité de retoucher , de modifier , donne une sorte de pouvoir sur la matière . Tu transmets tres bien la beauté de la nature dans ta peinture.
