Winsor & Newton Artisan Water Mixable Oil Color is made from linseed and safflower oils that have been modified to foster a stable, workable emulsion when water is added. This permits the use of water to clean up eliminating the reliance on hazardous solvents such as turpentine. The colors have been specifically designed to work and look just like standard oil colors. Artisan has similar depth of color, buttery consistency, lightfastness, opacity/transparency, performance, and drying time when compared with standard oil colors.
