Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Paint Open Stock

Our Artists’ Oil Colour is the best in traditional oil colour, with a spectrum of 119 colours.

We use only the purest pigments with the most suitable drying oils. Each colour is formulated to optimize and enhance the pigments’ natural characteristics to provide covering power, tinting strength and stability.

Pigments: With 80 single pigment colours, this range offers infinite colour possibilities and brighter secondary mixes.

Consistency &Texture: Artists' Oil Colour's buttery, stiff consistency is ideal for retaining brush or palette knife strokes and can be thinned to a very fine glaze.

Surface Sheen: The sheen reflects the pigments used and the different oil levels in each formulation, so the gloss level varies across individual colours. This can be controlled by selecting the surface, the addition of solvent and the mediums used.

History: Since 1832, Winsor & Newton has maintained a reputation for excellence. Their wide artists' oil range of 114 colours features an extremely high level of pigmentation with only the world's best pigments chosen.

One hundred eleven colours are classified as permanent and offer unsurpassed covering power. All colours within the range are inter-mixable & can also be combined with other Winsor & Newton oil products, except (a)Thin alkyd films over thick oil and (b)Thick Oil-bar films under oil films.
