Are there any good websites with instruction in painting?

I’d like specifically oil painting, but I’m open to others. I’ve been painting for a while but I’ve hit a sort of roadblock in terms of technique. Taking a class and spending money aren’t really options at the moment. Are there any decent instructional websites out there? Not necessarily for beginners?

@delirium: Judging by how fast you grabbed that, you’re an artist too? Looks like a really interesting blog with a lot of variety. Thanks!
Take a google look.
Sherwin-williams, Lowes, Home Depot, stop at a store and someone will help you.
You can always watch good ol’ Bob Ross videos.
Let’s paint a happy little tree riiiight there :)
Hahaha, yes, asmonet. I paint quite a bit. Lots of oil, less acrylic. I’m going through a watercolor addiction right now.
@aug: My first painting was based on a Bob Ross class. Shush.
I totally painted the crap out of that happy tree.
@del: Same here, I suck with acrylic, I get frustrated at how quickly it dries. I like to paint, and then come back to it a day later if I’m feeling blah about it. You can’t really do that with acrylic. :-( Watercolor is win!
@kid: I’m not sure if that was a joke or an honest answer. Either way, the question concerns painting on canvas, for the purpose of art. Not my bedroom wall.
It was suppose to be an honest answer :(.
Well, thanks for trying, but next time, maybe read the question more closely.
