I want to have professional levels of quality, I don't care about the money or popularity, I just want to be good.
Are there any hobbyists who have professional levels of quality in their art? I have a normal job that I work on the weekdays too.

/oil/ general. discuss anything specific to oil painting.

To start but not limit the thread: After years of charcoal drawing and dabbling in watercolor, acrylic, ink, etc. I've decided to dive into oils. I'm pretty confident in drawing, so I'm mostly concerned with handling. For those of you who have experience with oil:

What books/videos would you recommend? I've already read The Complete Oil Painter by Gorst.

What brands do you use?
What mixtures/substances do you use most commonly for your medium?

I want to start immediately with (a modified) grisaille, but are pre-stretched canvases with acrylic grounds okay? I'd size/ground my own with oil but I don't wanna wait 3 months for it to dry.
