Oil Paintings

Oil paintings carry layered histories - traditions passed down, reinterpreted, and sometimes challenged. Pigments mixed in oil (linseed oil most often) spread slowly across canvas, drying at their own pace, letting artists blend, rework, and create depth that lasts centuries.

Oil paintings carry layered histories - traditions passed down, reinterpreted, and sometimes challenged. Pigments mixed in oil (linseed oil most often) spread slowly across canvas, drying at their own pace, letting artists blend, rework, and create depth that lasts centuries. That’s why these works glow differently, luminous, almost breathing. At ArtFlute, our oil painting collection blends the rigor of classic technique with the voices of today’s Indian creators. Whether it’s lifelike portraits, dramatic landscapes, contemporary abstractions, or realistic depictions, collectors can buy oil paintings online here that feel like living legacies.

Shop by Different Style of Oil Paintings

1. Abstract Oil Paintings

Abstract oil paintings offer artists the freedom to blend, layer, and shape vibrant colors, creating works that evolve organically. Artists also choose oil for its radiant depth and tactile nuance, achieving expressive forms and a luminous energy hard to match with faster-drying media.

2. Modern Oil Paintings

Shop oil paintings that bridge heritage and innovation, exploring themes from abstraction to folk-inspired forms to personal identities.

3. Impressionist Oil Paintings

Impressionist works capture the fleeting light and mood — the dawn, dusk, and the shifting seasons. Oil’s slow drying and rich saturation helped them blend tones, add textures, and create that unique effect. While oil was also used to paint oil portraits and landscape oil paintings in exquisite detail, it also helped artists achieve the emotional mood and atmosphere of a scene that they wanted to capture.

4. Minimalist Oil Paintings

Where the technique of oil painting meets quiet simplicity — works that use pared-down form and palette, bringing clarity and mindful elegance to your space.

5. Traditional & Classic Oil Paintings

These paintings feature mostly classical techniques used to achieve realistic paintings and hyper realistic works. The technique was mastered by the European artists and eventually Indian artists like Raja Ravi Varma blended Indian mythology and storytelling with this style which made the style and technique widely popular.
