Personally, I don't like using linseed oil for the beginning background color. I use about 3 parts paint to 1 part turpentine. The linseed oil is meant be used as a glaze at the end.

Swab it down with Winsor&Newton "Liquin" and have at it!!! Forget mixing your own medium. It's the 21st friggin' century!
