  9. Do unopened oil paints get too old to use?

    August 25, 2010, 9:22 pm
    I work mostly with acrylics and watercolor, but a long time ago (probably 11 or 12 years back), I received a gift set of oil paints from a relative for Christmas. I was pretty young back then, and mom was afraid our house didn't have good ventilation and that I'd get it on her furniture or something, so I never did open them. I found that same, unopened gift set again when we moved to a new house just recently. I've painted with oils before and really like them, but they're so expensive. The gift set is Windor & Newton, so it's obviously good quality, but very old. Could I still use these, or will they have deteriorated too much by now?
