Winsor & Newton Watercolour Sets bring together colours from the Professional Watercolour range, offering artists a wide and carefully balanced selection of pigments with excellent permanence. First introduced in 1832 by Henry Newton and William Winsor, these moist watercolours marked a turning point in painting practice and remain a staple in artists’ studios today. The range is formulated to deliver clarity, strength and reliability across a broad spectrum of colour.
Each colour is selected according to masstone, undertone, colour strength, relative opacity and the natural behaviour of the pigment in water, such as granulation, staining or smooth washes. This considered approach ensures a versatile palette from which a large number of colours can be mixed, supporting both expressive and controlled watercolour techniques.
