I have tried a blowdryer. Mine has a cool blast button that just pushes cool air through. This helps but not really enough to make a huge difference. The best thing is just to wait. There are some sites that recommend baking it at a very low temperature (not over 130 degrees F) and some that recommend putting two 75 or 100 watt bulbs over the painting to help it dry more quickly, but oils really don't ever dry. Most sites I've seen recommend six months before you varnish to allow the painting to fully dry.

Good luck and if you find something that works, let the rest of us know!

Humidity affects the drying time of paint. Paint will take much longer to dry in humid conditions. In very humid conditions the paint will not set correctly and the finish will not look as good as it should.
