"Oil on canvas" is a phrase that refers to a singular noun, describing it. This noun, of course, is "painting." A painting is an object composed of oil on canvas. As such, it would be better to avoid pluralizing "oil on canvas" because there is a word much better suited to being pluralized in its stead. "Oils on canvas" lacks the proper meaning, and "oil on canvasses" sounds silly. Simply write that there are paintings (plural) of oil on canvas.
