I’m still working on this first painting, but I will share it here. I use meat packing paper as my palette. It’s waterproof, so it works out well and makes for easy clean up. I painted the first layer in acrylic and it was fully dry. When squeezing out the paint, oil comes out first, but then highly pigmented color comes out. It’s very mixable, not only with water, but with all the other paint colors. It would be great to have two tubes of titanium white in the set. You only need a very small amount of paint, so this set will last a while for smaller painting projects. There is a slight odor. I used Dawn dishwashing liquid and water to clean my paint brushes. That may be a bit harsh over the long term. The paint was still drying when I took a break from working on this painting. I will be going back to it and adding and revising. I’ve only used traditional oil paints once before. This seems like an excellent alternative. Happy Painting! Review: No toxic odor and very beginner friendly! - I’ve been a painter for a long time, but always very intimidated by oil paints. My favorite artist said she used these, so I immediately purchased to try them out! OBSESSED. The colors are so rich and opaque. They mix well and go on smoothly and thick if you’d like. Doesn’t take nearly as long to dry as regular oils, and there’s no odor! I love being able to blend on the canvas, it makes painting skin especially so much smoother and realistic. ## Features - Artisan Water Mixable Oil Colour has been specifically developed to appear and work just like conventional oil color - The key difference between Artisan and conventional oils is its ability to thin and clean up with water. Hazardous solvents are not necessary for Artisan and artists can enjoy a safer painting environment, making it ideal for artists who share a work space, schools or painting at home. - There is no water within the Artisan formulation; the linseed and safflower oils have been modified to allow the colour to accept water. This creates a stable emulsion, and retains the working characteristics of conventional oil colour. - Each pigment needs different levels of oil in the formulation, so the sheen may differ slightly from color to color - Artisan has the short buttery consistency expected from a Winsor & Newton oil color, a consistency that is a careful balance between the pigment and the oils used in the formulation ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08NJZPC57 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #9,295 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #237 in Art Paints | | Brand Name | Winsor & Newton | | Color | 20 Colors | | Color Code | blanco de titanio | | Container Type | Tube | | Coverage | 24-29 m²/litre | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (1,638) | | Dry Time In Hours | 168 | | Finish Type | Variable | | Full Cure Time | 7 Days | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00884955074213 | | Included Components | Oil Colour Set | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Is Waterproof | True | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Type Name | Water Mixable Oil Color Paint Set | | Item Volume | 12 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 20 Grams | | Manufacturer | ColArt Americas | | Model Name | Artisan | | Model Number | 1590266 | | Paint Type | Oil | | Part Number | 1590266 | | Size | 8.11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | beginner's set, introductory set, starter kit, starter set, supplies kit | | Specific Uses For Product | Art Painting | | Surface Recommendation | Metal | | UPC | 884955074213 | | Unit Count | 8.11 Fluid Ounces | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Winsor & Newton - **Color:** 20 Colors - **Finish Type:** Variable - **Item Volume:** 12 Milliliters - **Paint Type:** Oil - **Size:** 8.11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** beginner's set, introductory set, starter kit, starter set, supplies kit - **Specific Uses For Product:** Art Painting - **Surface Recommendation:** Metal - **Unit Count:** 8.11 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![Winsor & Newton Artisan Water Mixable Oil Color Paint, 0.4-oz (12xml) Tubes, Set of 20 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51h9kgJ4Z6L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How fast do these dry? I have been painting with acrylics what are the differences? Thanks** A: It's still an oil paint, and the use of water while painting means that the water component dries within a few days; but, the oil base itself means that the thorough complete drying time is six months to a year, before you can varnish it. **Q: If only water is needed, what is artisan h2o med linseed oil multicolor for?** A: I do use water mixable linseed oil in preparing my canvas and also for blending. I don't use water in any way during painting. The advantage in using water mixable oil paint is the clean up and no chemical smell. **Q: does it mean that the medium for these is water?** A: It means you can use water to thin your paint and wash your brushes. Still use a bit of soap on your brushes when washing. The drying time is a bit faster than regular oil paint too. **Q: Can i use these with normal linseed oil? i can't buy the linseed oil for water mixable oils where i live. thanks!** A: Yes. My bottle says it is linseed oil. You won't bNeed much. My bottle is 8.4 ounces and only 1 or out of it after a year of once a week painting. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great alternative for those starting out with oil paints! *by H***N on February 24, 2026* So far these have worked out very well for me. I’m still working on this first painting, but I will share it here. I use meat packing paper as my palette. It’s waterproof, so it works out well and makes for easy clean up. I painted the first layer in acrylic and it was fully dry. When squeezing out the paint, oil comes out first, but then highly pigmented color comes out. It’s very mixable, not only with water, but with all the other paint colors. It would be great to have two tubes of titanium white in the set.

Happy Painting! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No toxic odor and very beginner friendly! *by A***L on December 5, 2025* I’ve been a painter for a long time, but always very intimidated by oil paints. My favorite artist said she used these, so I immediately purchased to try them out! OBSESSED. The colors are so rich and opaque. They mix well and go on smoothly and thick if you’d like. Doesn’t take nearly as long to dry as regular oils, and there’s no odor! I love being able to blend on the canvas, it makes painting skin especially so much smoother and realistic. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic set of beginner friendly oil paints in a nearly complete range of colors *by S***N on August 23, 2024* These paints behave like traditional oil paints and are nearly as pigmented as the artist's grade traditional oil paints by W&N. They definitely seem more pigmented than the Winton grade. There's an issue with extra oil being in some tubes, and some tubes not being 100% filled upon arrival, but none were tampered with, it just seems to be filling issues. Still, the paints perform wonderfully and this set is great for beginners. The tubes are SMALL, less than 1/3 of what a normal small tube contains. The color selection is very good; you get warm and cool versions of green, blue and red, but only one real yellow as the warm yellow is very orange heavy (cad yellow hue). You will run out of white before all the rest for sure. The earth and skin tones are rich but the selection is not full so keep that in mind if you want to do portraiture. Color selection is mostly missing Burnt Umber, Van Dyke Brown, Sap Green, Prussian Blue, Mars Black, and a Warm Yellow like Winsor Yellow but you've got everything else you'll ever need. The paints dry a significant amount of time faster than standard oil paints, most are touch dry within 36hrs. The paints are a bit stiff so always work lean to fat; add in turpentine or water-mixable solvent (or water) and gradually add more water mixable medium (I use fast drying medium) as you add more layers to the painting. Washing up is a breeze, but if you use solvent, as you should be, the paints will leave behind some sludgy residue inside the deep bristles of the brushes which can harden and bind the bristles if you don't wash it out so you'll need Masters Brush Soap to fully wash them out at the end of every session since these paints will not fully dissolve into solvents like traditional oil paints do. Ultimately if you want to avoid toxic solvents, want water-washable paints, and want something with the rich chroma and varied hues of oil paints but with faster drying and less expense, give these paints a try! P.s. the French Ultramarine is particularly good. So good that I ordered a 200ml tube to keep on hand because it is better than most brands artist grade versions at a tiny fraction of the cost. It's not as good as W&N artist grade french ultramarine, but it's literally less than 1/3 the cost. ## Frequently Bought Together - Winsor & Newton Artisan Water Mixable Oil Color Paint, 0.4-oz (12xml) Tubes, Set of 20 - Winsor & Newton Artisan Water Mixable Oil Colour, 6.75-oz (200ml), Titanium White - Winsor & Newton Artisan Water Mixable Painting Medium, 75ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/305769962-winsor-and-newton-artisan-water-mixable-oil-color-paint-0](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/305769962-winsor-and-newton-artisan-water-mixable-oil-color-paint-0) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
