If you have a time getting the paint off of your hands, baby oil or olive oil works really well. Wear rubber gloves, then you need not worry about the paint getting on your hands.
A great thing to begin with is to use primary colors to create various shades of gray from white to black, and paint in black and white.This gives you a chance to know the value and contrast.
The thinner/oil mix up seems to last longer than just the thinner between cleaning, and when it gets really cloudy, it doesn't split.
Try to make a painting using only your palette knife to paint with it and the results are so interesting. When painting outside, make sure that your canvas and your palette are not in direct sunlight. It is better to shade your canvas and palette because if you paint with the canvas in direct sunlight, it will cause you to mix your colors wrongly.
A limited palette is suggested when painting outside as well. You can mix the colors you need and need not drag all of your paints out into the field.
