its my first time using oil paint, and im not sure how to clean it. i tried hot water and soap but that doesn't work. is it even possible to clean oil paint and if there is please tell me.
 
White spirit gets it out, no problem. If you can, try and get some before it dries, it'll be easier. Don't use too much or leave it on too long or it'll bleach fabric.
 
If the paint is still wet... clean with mineral spirits (sub-turps) charcoal lighter fuel...kerosene.

If the paint has dried... scrape as much of it off as you can, and then use the mineral spirits.

In either case, make sure you are in a well ventilated area and wash with soap and water after using the solvent.....good luck!
