With 96 colours, the Winsor&Newton Professional Water Colour range offers bright, vibrant colours and unrivalled performance.
Water colour, more than any other medium, reflects the unique characteristics of the pigments used and Winsor&Newton Professional Water Colours use only the finest pigments, and are known for their brilliance, permanence and strength of colour.
Pigments
With 75 single pigment colours in the range, Winsor&Newton offers the widest range of modern and traditional pigments for clean colour mixing.
Unrivalled Transparency
The transparency of the Professional Water Colour is achieved by a unique process of pigment dispersion during manufacture. The natural characteristics of each pigment highlights the paint’s transparency level. In water colour painting, thin washes are applied allowing the white of the paper to reflect through the wash.
Permanence
93 out of 96 colours in our Professional Water Colour range are classed as "permanent for artists’ use”, rated AA or A for archival permanence to ensure that these colours used today will appear the same for generations to come.
