• The range consists of 40 colours that possess good transparency, excellent tinting strength and good working properties.
• The range of 40 colours are chosen according to mass tone (colour from tube), undertone (bias of colour when in a thin film), colour strength, relative opacity and the character of the pigment itself. The resultant colour spectrum ensures the largest number of colours can be mixed.
• The Winsor and Newton Cotman Watercolour range has a more uniform consistency than the Artists’ Water Colour range and this benefits beginners as there is less to learn about each individual pigment.
• The Cotman Water Colour range also relates to the Winsor & Newton Artists’ Water Colour range, this enables artists to use colours from both ranges with minimal adjustment to their technique.
• These paints are suitable for both amateur and professional artists, offering a wide range of colours and a uniform consistency that makes them easy to use and mix.
