Fondant is a sugary mixture that becomes like modeling clay when at room temperature and it's used to cover decorated cakes. Since the cake needs to be at room temperature to serve and since fondant can easily become soft enough to sag or slide off the cake, the best way to keep it from melting is to keep it refrigerated until you're ready to serve and only give it an hour or so to warm up. Keep any unserved portion back in the fridge.
To keep it from melting while your working with it to cover the cake or make the decorations, keep the room cooler than you would usually and stay away from sunny windows, the oven and any other heat source.

To prevent oil paint from drying out, make sure to keep the paint tubes tightly closed when not in use and store them in a cool, dark place. You can also add a small amount of oil medium to the paint to keep it moist while working. Additionally, using a palette with a lid or a wet palette can help keep the paint from drying out too quickly.

Fondant won't really "preserve" a piece of cake. It will keep it fresher a bit longer, but the cake will still go bad soon thereafter.
Keep it is a dry place, with low humidity. MOisture in the air will make the drying process slower. Also, keep the temperature about average. Too hot won't allow it to dry, too cool might not allow it to set up or will change the consistancy of it. Then just leave it to air dry.
