Winsor & Newton Artists’ Oil Colours are supreme quality oil paints that offer artists beautiful, lightfast, single-pigment colours.
Winsor & Newton craft their colours from single pigments wherever possible to create individual colours; this ensures clean, accurate mixing. There are more than 80 single pigment colours in the range, so you can mix new variations with confidence.
This perfectly formulated oil paint is only possible because it holds over 190 years of research, expertise, and the highest quality production methods. The scientific processes Winsor & Newton follow guarantees that every colour will be the same high-quality paint every time.
Every tube of Artists’ Oil Paint contains a calculated ratio of oil and pigment based on the quantity of oil in the tube. This varies from colour to colour because, just as some pigments need to be ground finer than others, they also need more, or less, oil to provide optimal performance.
Paintings last well beyond our lifetime if the materials you choose allow for that. Years from now, for your work to be seen as you intend it to be, your materials need to be lightfast (not fade from exposure to light) and permanent (not change over time). So that you can trust in the longevity of your work, Winsor & Newton’s oil colours are tested for these qualities and have some of the best ratings (at least AA or A).
Series 4 also features Cadmium-Free colours, created by chemists in collaboration with artists. The cadmium-free formula was tried and tested by artists to ensure it matched the vibrancy, opacity, lightfastness, and permanence of traditional cadmium colours.
