There is many combinations and they depend on what effect you want. There is a rule fat over lean.. So when you start your painting use more turpentine and as you progress you can use more oil. I like to use about 2 parts of oil to turpentine, but I adjust to needs. With experience you will find the mixture that fits you the most.What are the proportions of oil and turpentine to use for oil painting media ?
there are many combinations. 1 part linseed or stand oil and 3 parts turpentine is a good one.
there is also 1 part linseed, 1 part darmar varnish and 1 part turpentine is another.
try both and choose your preference.What are the proportions of oil and turpentine to use for oil painting media ?

Not.
Don't mix oil and turpentine to make medium. Use ready made medium.
