Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Color, 200ml (6.75 oz) Tube, Titanium White

I have to say this is worth its price. Great for transparency and a game changer for layered work! I never see this in stores so I’m glad I could find a reasonable sized tube here.

As an artist, I have every brand of paint, but nothing beats Winsor Newton. As the years pass, some tubes get hard and only with a palette knife, will the paint be malleable. Other times, the oil separates from the pigment and makes a mess. But with WN, I never have that problem. Juicy, great pigment, never separates and very reasonably priced. There colors are consistent, coverage is great, and goes on smoothly. As I replace old, used tubes, I gravitate to this brand.

Great Artist Grade Paints! Rich pigments.

Great pigment I love this oil paint.

Full-body yellow, as it should be. Far better than their Winton Series Lemon Yellow Hue. Too bad it's so expensive.

Some colors are more translucent than others, and this is one of the more translucent I have come across. I love the oil binder this company uses. It's slick and easy to lay on the canvas and blend with. As far as being translucent, I can use this and not worry about overpowering the other colors. But, on the flip side, because of its lack of opaqueness, I found it hard to make the translucence really pop. I wanted to try this as an alternative to silver (sometimes silver is too dark) but the silvers I have are much more iridescent. Still, this white definitely has its uses, just a bit less versatile than I hoped.

Out of the hundreds of premium oil paints I have purchased from around the world, Winsor & Newton has never failed to meet my expectations. W&N oil paint is certainly not the highest quality, and depending on one’s perspective, there may be several points of criticism. However, W&N’s strength lies in the consistency of its quality. There are, of course, other premium brands made with higher-grade materials that W&N does not offer, but to me, W&N is the most standard, good-value paint. It can be manipulated easily and broadly, and depending on the technique and the mediums mixed with it, its performance can match or even exceed that of others.

Absolutely beautiful! Smooth application! Perfect!
