: AFTER NOT PAINTING FOR A LONG TIME SOME OF MY OIL PAINT TUBES DRIED AND THEY WON'T OPEN. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE?

If just the caps are stuck... I put the tube, cap down, into a jar of solvent and wait. It'll soften so you can unscrew it and clean out the cap.
If the tube of paint is dried up, there's nothing you can do to bring the paint back to life.
