What are oil paints

Oil paints are made by kneading pigments into vegetable oils such as poppy or linseed oil.
When exposed to air, these oils oxidize and harden the paint.
The reason oil paints do not dry immediately after application is that these chemical changes occur slowly.
Unlike water-based paints, where the water evaporates, oil paints remain thick after drying because the oil content hardens after drying.
