These oil colors were originally developed by artists for artists and are made from quality  artist-grade  pigments, oils, and other specially selected waxes.   A broader range of 50 colors expands creative options for artists' palettes. Better still, the new range harmonizes with all other Winsor &amp; Newton tube color ranges for effortless transitions and combinations.   Softer on application than the original, the new Oilbar transfers to canvas with less pressure, further freeing the artist to create bold gestures or subtle passages.

For students, amateur painters, and professional artists using high volumes of color, Winton Oil Color is the ultimate high-quality yet economical oil paint. 

Winton brings together the best of the Winsor & Newton paint-making tradition with modern technology. Rather than lessening the pigment content to create a more affordable paint, Winton Oils are formulated using moderately priced pigments that still possess good covering power and tinting strength&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp;including genuine, excellent-quality cadmiums and cobalts. While Winton Oils can't match the superior pigment load of Winsor & Newton Professional Oils, they are still much stronger than the artist-quality lines of many other brands. 

  Every Winton Oil color is individually formulated to bring out the best natural characteristics of the pigment. These paints have a more uniform consistency than Winsor & Newton Professional Oils and are slightly stiffer, offering excellent retention of brush strokes and knife marks. The gloss level varies from color to color, but again they have a more uniform sheen across the range as compared to the Professional line.

  All colors are either AA or A rated and are recommended as permanent for artists' use.

Winton is a traditional range of oil colors made from moderately priced pigments, formulated for student and amateur artists or more accomplished painters who require large volumes of color within a moderate cost range.
