Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Colour 37ml Transparent Maroon
Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Colour Transparent Maroon is a transparent rich red with strong brown undertones. It is mixed with linseed/safflower oil and is a permanent color with very good lightfastness. It is made from the modern Bensimidazalone pigment which was developed by the German company Hoechst in the 1960s.
Every tube of Artists' Oil Paint contains a calculated ratio of oil and pigment based on the quantity of oil in the tube. This varies from color to color because, just as some pigments need to be ground finer than others, they also need more, or less, oil to provide optimal performance.
