Reviews

The quality of all the

"The quality of all the colors I bought is top-shelf. The colors themselves are alive, which I appreciate very much."

Todd S. (5/5)

Very happy with price, quality

"Very happy with price, quality and speed of delivery"

Naomi T. (5/5)

AMAZING

"Perfect texture, quality, and color. Lamp black is exceptional for use in skies due to its blueish bias, when mixed with white. It allows for a simple stormy/gray sky alternative, compared to more rich mixtures. You can make silver out of it too!"

Corbin C. (5/5)

Rather expensive

"I see that winsornewton professional oils are MUCH more expensive when purchased directly from winsornewton. Example: Cobalt Turquoise Light can be bought for around £16 for a 37ml tube, compare with £28 from winsornewton direct."

Zoltan M. (2/5)

Amazing Red.

"A Scarlet leaning earthy red. The texture I have come across in my tubes has been somewhat runny, and not ideal, but I believe this to be a rare tube by tube basis, rather than the pigment and quality of the product itself. Great for mixing oranges."

Corbin C. (5/5)

Its amazing quality!

"Its amazing quality!"

Isabella D. (5/5)

Beautiful Oils

"Winsor & Newton never fail to provide tubes of paint that exceed my expectations each time I purchase them. They have a wide selection to choose from for primaries, which makes finding a cheaper alternative to one yellow or blue, possible. The affordability is forgiving and ideal for all of humanity. The oil to pigment ratio is ideal for a starting point; oily, but not too stiff either. I enjoy mixing my own paints from raw pigment, but if I had an eternal choice of pre-tubed oils, W&N would be my pick, forever."

Corbin C. (5/5)

Always a winner from W&N

"I haven't had an opportunity to use this color, but I love the look of it and if it is good enough for James Gurney, it is more than good enough for me. :)"

Regina T. (5/5)

Very useful.

"I have found raw umber to be of highly good value in making earth, and water, as burnt umber can lean quite red at times, raw umber appears to be a more true neutral."

Corbin C. (5/5)

Versatile Pigment.

"Great pigment, leans quite scarlet/orange. I mostly use it to make nice oranges and tone my canvases. Very good pigment."
