Unrivalled in brilliance, Winsor & Newton Professional Acrylics are made with the highest quality, maximum-strength pigments to ensure clean, strong colors with wonderful working properties. Their revolutionary transparent binder virtually eliminates color shift from wet to dry, eliminating guesswork and letting acrylic painters make the most of spontaneous, direct painting techniques.

Brilliance (defined as the richness, intensity, and depth of a color) is possibly the most important quality to look for in an acrylic paint. Winsor & Newton Professional Acrylics are unsurpassed in this regard. This becomes evident when you apply these colors straight from tube to canvas, as well when executing thin films and glazes. Even the earth tones, blacks, and whites are clean and never dull.

Each individual color In the Professional Acrylic line uses the maximum amount of pigment possible — without extenders — to produce a brilliant paint with the broadest handling properties and outstanding color-mixing capabilities.

Winsor & Newton's expertise in resin technology has resulted in a unique binder that is translucent when wet and dries clear — ensuring virtually no shift in color, and colors that remain as brilliant when dry as they are when wet. The result is a range that allows artists to match colors more easily from palette to canvas and see a painting as it will actually look when finished.

Tubes are available in 60 ml and 200 ml sizes. 237 ml jars are also available.

Starter Set of 12 — This set contains 12, 20 ml tubes of Professional Acrylics, including Azo Yellow Medium, Lemon Yellow, Mars Black, Naphthol Red Light, Olive Green, Permanent Alizarin Crimson, Phthalo Blue Red Shade, Phthalo Green Blue Shade, Raw Umber, Titanium White, Ultramarine Blue, and Yellow Ochre.

_______________________________________________

Until now acrylic paints have tended to darken in tone as they dry, making color-matching difficult from wet palette to dry canvas. Color shift is due to the binder changing from white to transparent as it dries. As the white emulsion dries within the color and becomes clear, the paint becomes more transparent and therefore darker.

Winsor & Newton’s expertise in color-making and resin technology has resulted in a unique binder that is translucent when wet and dries clear — ensuring virtually no shift in color, and colors that remain as brilliant when dry as they are when wet. The result is a range that allows artists to match colors more easily from palette to canvas and see a painting as it will actually look when finished.
