Winsor and Newton Artist Water Colours
William Winsor and Henry Newton first introduced most water colours in the
1830’s.
Artists Water Colours are made from the finest pigments available in
the highest concentrations possible consistent with good handling qualities.
There are three main characteristics of water colour pigments which are commonly
referred to by the artist. The relative staining ability of pigments is
noted by artists who wish to lift colours with a sponge, to achieve particular
colour and texture effects. Some pigments show a tendency to granulate,
like Raw Umber, causing the pigments to settle in the hollows of the paper surface
to produce a mottled effect. Flocculation also gives a mottled effect.
This happens when pigment particles are attracted to each other rather than dispersing
evenly, like Ultramarine Blue.
