Oil Paintings don't dry over night...

Creating oil paintings with a fast approaching deadline is a bit nerve racking.  Especially when you do not use any mediums to quicken the dry time of oil paints.  I asked googled for some tricks to speed up the process of oxidation and came up with some odd solutions, including the use of my oven and black lights.  I don't know if those techniques work, as I didn't try baking my art for fear of fire and fumes.  However, what I did, worked.  And thus, I now share my success with others who might be struggling to speed up the dry time on an oil painting.  

The suggestion I followed involved a warm/hot dry environment and light.  This was supposedly the optimal environment for oxidation of oil paints.  I turned the heat up in my studio to 74 degrees and left on all the lights.  I also turned on the ceiling fan to increase air flow and closed the door to keep the heat in the small space.  I left my work in this warm/dry environment for a week.  The results are pretty crazy.  The paintings are almost completely dry.  The areas with high concentrations of Titanium White - a notoriously slow-drying color - are the only areas that remain unhardened.  I feel confident that even these areas will be dry by the deadline of April 24.  

I do not claim to have the answer, but I can attest that this solution helped a great deal.  Good luck to you if you are trying to speed up this process in your own work.
