Winsor & Newton Painting Oils, Mediums, Solvents & Varnishes, 75 ml Bottle

From [https://www.winsornewton.com/] Choosing complementary oils, solvents, mediums, and varnishes for your oil painting is as unique as choosing a colour palette. Depending on your style and technique, there are a wide range of traditional oils, mediums, and solvents to help you control your colour as well as varnishes to protect your work and provide a final finish. Used to modify the rate of drying, increase gloss, improve flow or add texture, mediums should be used in moderation as an additive to the colour. To complement our oil colour ranges we offer oils, mediums, solvents and varnishes to control, enhance and protect your work. Preparing your surface is an essential first step in your artwork process. PreparePrimers protect your surfaces and provide a controlled absorption for oil painting OilsOils will modify the colours viscosity, gloss and drying time. Using oils maintains the flexibility of paint films, particularly when working fat over lean, preventing over-thinning, when using solvents. MediumsSince binders are already included in the milling process, mediums should be used moderately in conjunction with paint. SolventsSolvents are used to clean brushes and palettes after painting. They should only be used sparingly for thinning colour, so as not to affect the integrity of the paint. Our solvents are made specifically for artists’ use and are fully volatile, meaning they leave no residualmatter when they evaporate from the paint mixture. VarnishesThe final step for finished artwork, to protect it from the build-up of dirt and grease, and the passage of time. Available in a spray or bottle, in matte, satin and gloss finishes. It is important that oil paintings are completely dry before varnishing – this takes six to twelve months, depending on the thickness of the paint.

Winsor & Newton Artisan Water Mixable Oil Color Paint, Series 1, 37ml Tube

Introduced in the UK by Winsor & Newton in the mid-19th century, Winsor & Newton Artisan water mixable oil color has been specifically developed to appear and work just like conventional oil color. The key difference between artisan and conventional oils is its ability to thin and clean up with water. Hazardous solvents are not necessary for artisan and artists can enjoy a safer painting environment, making it ideal for artists who share a work space, schools or painting at home. Like traditional oil color, artisan water mixable oil color is made from linseed oil and safflower oil but the difference is the linseed oil and safflower oil used in artisan have been modified so that they will mix and clean up with water. Zinc white is an opaque white based on zinc pigments. It is an excellent tinting white, also known as Chinese white. FeaturesThe key difference between Artisan and conventional oils is its ability to thin and clean up with water. Hazardous solvents are not necessary for Artisan and artists can enjoy a safer painting environment, making it ideal for artists who share a work space, schools or painting at home.There is no water within the Artisan formulation; the linseed and safflower oils have been modified to allow the color to accept water. This creates a stable emulsion, and retains the working characteristics of conventional oil color.The pigments, together with the most suitable oil, bring out each color’s individual characteristics, from opacity to natural transparency.Each pigment needs different levels of oil in the formulation, so the sheen may differ slightly from color to color. The addition of water as a solvent, as well as the use of mediums, will also alter the sheen.Artisan has the short buttery consistency expected from a Winsor & Newton oil color, a consistency that is a careful balance between the pigment and the oils used in the formulation (modified linseed and safflower). This is the traditional consistency of oil colors, and as such allows the artist a broader variety of techniques, the color can be thinned as required.
