Every Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Colour is individually formulated to enhance each pigment's natural characteristics and ensure stability of colour. By exercising maximum quality control throughout all stages of manufacture, selecting the most suitable drying oils and method of pigment dispersion, the unique individual properties of each colour are preserved.

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.

Gamblin 1980 Oil Colors are made with the same dedication and pure pigments that go into their Artist Oils'. In addition, they use the same process of mixing, milling, filling, and hand labelling.To ensure the 1980 colours are affordable, Gamblin formulates them with pure pigments, refined linseed oil and marble dust (calcium carbonate). This is different to many other paint manufacturers who use gels and waxes to stiffen colours, or even replace traditional pigments with less expensive ones.This set gives painters a thoughtfully constructed palette of Gamblin 1980 Oil Colors to support any style of painting.

It includes:

As with all Winsor & Newton colours, every colour in the range is individually formulated to take advantage of the natural characteristics of each pigment and to ensure the stability of the colour. The vehicle (oil modified alkyd resin) allows the colour to dry quicker whilst retaining the other characteristics of conventional oil colour.Because alkyd resin has physical properties that differ slightly from those of traditional oils, the pigment load is somewhat different as well. Experienced painters will notice slightly greater transparency compared to Artists' Oil Colour. The colour has been formulated to offer the greatest degree of tinting strength possible (consistent with good handling properties), and to take full advantage of the true characteristics of each pigment.

Winsor & Newton's most popular oil. A low viscosity alkali refined oil of pale colour that dries slowly. Reduces oil colour consistency. Increases gloss & transparency. Add to other oils to slow drying.

Langridge Handmade Oil Colour has been constructed to excel in saturation of colour and physical handling qualities. Developed in consultation with artists, these paints satisfy demands for oil colours that are unadulterated by fillers or modifiers, resulting in a pure, full-strength paint.

Cobra Water Mixable Oil Colours provide a perfect oil paint result with a uniform drying time and degree of gloss. Painting with Cobra paints is much like painting with traditional oils. The paint can be applied using all the usual oil paint techniques. The colour, as well as the brush stroke or applied texture, retains its full expression after the paint has dried; the paint remains as it was when applied.

This reduces the consistency and improves flow of Artisan oil colours. It also increases the gloss and transparency of Artisan. Artisan Water Mixable Linseed Oil is the main binder in the Artisan colours. When mixed with colour it reduces their consistency. Linseed oil is the most commonly used medium. It is combined with water or Thinner to maintain the structure of the paint film. It is also used when painting in layers to maintain the fat over lean rule - each successive layer must have more oil in it than the previous one.

High quality yet economical oil colour

Well-balanced colour spectrum of 48 brilliant colours

High concentration of pigments for an exceptional colour intensity

Excellent lightfastness

25 single-pigment-colours

Use of especially refined linseed oil and sunflower oil (pharmaceutical quality), no tendency of yellowing

Distinctive smooth buttery consistency through the use of bees wax

Surface drying in 2 to 4 days

Traditional production on three roll mills

A spoor (0.5-1.5%) of the finest bees wax as one of the ingredients gives the colour the famous buttery and short consistency and makes the colour-film less brittle for the restorer. The binders are only pure vegetable linseed and sunflower oils in special quality.

PY42. Very Fast Drying. Transparent. Excellent Lightfastness. Average Oil Content.

A synthetic Iron Oxide in a beautifully rich shade, with very dense warm undertones. A good modelling pigment, which works well into yellow and red highlights.

Sublime brilliance and intensely deep colours

Optimal colour strength due to the highest possible concentration of pigments and very fine grinding

Highest degree of lightfastness

Very pure colours and greatest durability of the paint coat

Ultramarine Violet: Mineral colour that greys into the colours of the natural world.

There is no water within the formulation of Artisan. The linseed oil and safflower oil vehicles have been modified to allow the colour to accept water, creating a stable emulsion, while retaining the working characteristics of conventional oil colour.Artisan is ideal for:-

Oil painters who are sensitive to, or simply want to avoid exposure to solvents such as white spirit (mineral spirits) or turpentine.

Students and teachers in schools and colleges where the use of oil colour is prohibited because of the solvents.

Artists working in shared studio space where the build up of solvent levels could lead to a harmful concentration of vapours and a generally an unpleasant odour.

Artists who work within a small home environment and wish to reduce the odour of oil painting.

For travel, all Artisan products (Colour & Mediums) can be transported on aeroplanes (subject to the agreement of the airline).

The range has also been formulated with a high proportion of single pigments for brilliance of colour and clean colour mixing. The most suitable oil and methods for dispersion have been selected to bring out the individual characteristics, from opacity to natural transparency, of each pigment in the Artisan range.

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.
