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.
Jackson's Professional Oil Paints are made by skilled artisans, using only the finest grade pigments and the purest refined oils to create colours that are rich and vibrant. The intense colour saturation and purity of this range is achieved by high pigment loading coupled with our traditional production process. We don't use drying modifiers to even out drying times and so you will find some variation across the range reflecting the natural drying characteristics of each pigment. MEK and MEKO are not used in any Jackson's oil paints.
Unbleached Titanium Dioxide
PW6.1. Fast Drying. Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. Low Oil Content.
Before Titanium Dioxide is refined to make it white it contains a measure of Iron Oxide, which gives it a subtle linen or limewash pinky-brown shade. As well as making it a good drier, such a presence makes this paint an ideal ground or underpainting colour, with good texture and a lean surface. Some painters use it as a mixing agent in flesh painting.
PBk 9. Average Drying. Semi-Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. High oil Content.
An impure amorphous Carbon in Calcium Phosphate, Ivory Black is no longer made from burning ivory scraps, but from charred animal bones. It is denser in shade and cooler than Lamp Black with stronger tint power. The most frequently used black in the range.
Terre Verte
PG23. Fast Drying. Transparent. Excellent Drying. Average Oil Content. Green Earth, a complex of Ferrous Silicates in Aluminium and Magnesium clays, is one of the few naturally-occurring inorganic pigments still to be offered by colourmen. It has a very soft texture with very low tint power, beloved of portraitists who use it as a glaze over Alizarin Crimson hues. Some makers add other pigments in order to give it a spuriously enhanced tint power which annuls these qualities.

Phthalo Greens. An interesting range of blue-greys are produced
when combined with reds.Michael Harding Oil Colours are among the
finest oil paints available to artists today. The colours have a
high load of top quality pigments, ground in refined cold-pressed
linseed oil. They are completely free of fillers, extenders, or
driers, resulting in pure, rich, and vibrant colours that are
lightfast and buttery.First manufactured in 1982, Michael Harding
Artists' Oil Colours are exceptional quality and are made by hand.
They are very popular with some of the world's finest artists,
including David Hockney, Chris Ofili, and the late Sir Howard

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.

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.
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
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.

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.
