Winsor & Newton Winton Oil Color (WOC) is a traditional range of oil colors, made from moderately priced pigments, formulated for student and amateur artists or more accomplished painters requiring large volumes of color within moderate cost limits. The application of traditional skills and modern color chemistry techniques has resulted in a range of carefully selected Winton Oil Colors which are of excellent quality. FeaturesWinton Oil Color offers quality and affordability by using moderately priced pigments, rather than reducing the pigment load and compromising color performance. A high level of pigmentation provides good covering power and tinting strength. While it can't match the superior pigment load of Artists' Oil Color, the Winton range is much stronger than many other artists' quality ranges.The Winton range has a more uniform consistency than Artists' Oil Color and is slightly stiffer. It offers excellent retention of brush and palette knife strokes.The sheen of Winton is largely due to the pigments used so the gloss level varies across individual colors. This can be controlled through the selection of surface, the addition of solvent and the mediums used.
