:) no .. normal paper will soak all the oil .. canvas is the best i guess .. but can be done on wood, ply or some other surfaces .. but that needs to be primed with a primer or acrylic

what's a primer?

Is it something like varnish or those oil mediums like linseed?

No .. it's a water based solution mainly .. look for "GESSO" (there are other primers, but I don't know) .. you have to cover a surface with that before using oil paint on that surface
