Combined with over 170 years of manufacturing and quality control expertise, the formulation of Artist's Oil Colour ensures the best raw materials are made into the world's finest colours.

Artists' Oil Colour uses the highest level of pigmentation consistent with the broadest handling properties. The quantity of pigment used provides covering power and tinting strength.

PB15.3 Fast Drying. Transparent. Excellent Lightfastness. High Oil Content.

A Chlorinated Copper invented in 1935, this was one of the first synthetic organic pigments to be accepted as reliably permanent. It is sometimes seen as a modern replacement for Prussian blue, but its unmixed colour is slightly more cyan, and in hues it exhibits a unique range of throbbing, intense, greenish blues which are quite distinct from the latter. Having the most powerful tint power of any colour in my range, this paint will blow any mix apart; if you wish to avoid doing so, add it in tiny quantities and with caution! Its ferrous content makes it a great drier, and like Prussian Blue it shows a tendency to bronze on drying.

A high level of pigmentation provides good covering power and tinting strength. While it can't match the superior pigment load of Artists' Oil Colour, the Winton range is much stronger than many other artists' quality ranges.The economical cost has been achieved through the use of moderately priced pigments rather than lessening the pigment content to an unacceptable level. Winsor & Newton formulation, manufacture and quality control ensure a product of absolute excellence. The Winton range has a more uniform consistency than Artists' Oil Colour and is slightly stiffer. It offers excellent retention of brush and palette knife strokes.

In 1985, following extensive research, Old Holland presented a revolutionary range of 168 oil paints, each with the highest degree of lightfastness. Traditional, non-lightfast pigments were replaced with modern lightfast pigments with the same colour characteristics as the traditional ones. Thanks to the highest possible concentration of pigment in each colour, the paint has an unprecedented colour strength. Within the unique range of 168 colours, there is a wide range of opaque and transparent colours, each with the highest possible brilliance (intense) and clarity (clean) characteristics. The only medium used for these oil paints is cold-pressed extra virgin linseed oil, to obtain an optimum oxidisation (drying) of the paint. This increases durability and brushstroke spread. Together, these characteristics result in an oil paint of unequalled quality.

Tradition. The original formula handed down through generations exactly as it had been conceived. Oil plus pigment, period. Faithfully carrying through time the elements required by master painters united in seeking fine execution and quality mediums. Historic tonalities, unattainable mixtures, tints now impossible to find whose roots are in the Italian painting that the whole world admires and extols. Like a force abiding by transcendent principles, flowing through the ages. Artisti still bears the label of the A series that Gianni Maimeri designed in 1923. One hundred and two colours, in a balanced division. Five differently toned whites. Seventeen natural earth tones. Three chrome yellows. No colours with low light resistance. No substance considered harmful is used.
