Only the purest pigments and the highest grades are used in Artists' Acrylics, formulated individually to ensure the cleanest, most brilliant colours. Winsor & Newton have developed a new unique binder that is translucent when wet and dries clear. It is this that ensures there is virtually no shift in colour at all and colours remain as brilliant when dry as they are when wet.

Artists' Acrylic offers the smooth, thick, short, buttery consistency preferred by most acrylic artists, with no stringiness. This juicy and painterly colour enables paints to be blended more easily and mixed with mediums or even water for water colour techniques. Whilst maintaining individual pigment characteristics these paints have achieved a uniform buttery consistency across the range, making it easier for the artist to handle during painting. These colours retain brushstrokes and the profile of the paint for excellent impasto effects. They also dilute gradually as water or medium is added, giving artists the maximum control over their paint.

With Original and Heavy Body versions, System 3 acrylics are highly versatile, water-based acrylic colours. They offer an excellent painting experience at an economical price. Only high-quality pigments are used in the manufacture of the System 3 acrylic ranges, offering significantly greater loading than in other acrylic ranges available in this class. System 3’s comprehensive range of colours offers excellent light-fastness, permanence, durability and covering power.

All colours can be thinned with water to pale washes, or used directly from the pot or tube; each form dries quickly to create an insoluble film. The quick drying properties of the range enable the artist to work quickly, superimposing or juxtaposing colours without unnecessary fuss.

All System 3 Original and Heavy Body colours are fully intermixable and suitable for interior use. As they are not lightfast, fluorescent colours are not recommended for exterior use; all other colours are both lightfast and durable.

Matisse Flow Formula acrylic colours are a vibrant and intense acrylic with a low-viscosity. They are well suited to mural work, acrylic canvas painting, geometrics, hard edge, photo-realism and fine detail brushwork. All colours are avaliable in 75ml jars.

Fluid Acrylics contain high pigment levels suspended in an acrylic polymer vehicle. The result offers fine dispersion, high tinting strength, durability, flexibility and good adhesion. Fluid Acrylics are ideal for spraying, brushing and staining. Produced from lightfast pigments, not dyes, they offer very strong colours with very thin consistencies.

This ensures strong and brilliant colours.• The Expert Series comprises a group of colours with authentic, very exclusive pigments.• Many of the colours of the Expert Series are single-pigmented. These colours therefore have a maximum purity. When these single-pigmented colours are mixed they produce a ‘pure' mix.• Due to its basis of a 100% acrylic resin the paint has a durable and flexible paint film.• The acrylic colours of the Expert Series have a uniform degree of sheen. You therefore do not get undesired differences in sheen.• The original colour of the paint is maintained for at least 100 years under museum conditions. This is due to the highest degree of lightfastness of the colours.
