Take the mystery out of oil painting!
Winsor & Newton Artists’ Oil Colour Demonstration
Oil colour has been around for 600 years but it can still be daunting.
Luckily Winsor & Newton has been at it for long time too! If you’ve wanted
to dive into oil painting but don’t know where to start, this demonstration
with Olivia Di Gregorio will help take the mystery out of the materials and
the painting process.
All 133 of the Artists’ Oil Colours have the highest level of pigmentation
consistent with the broadest handling properties which gives artists
excellent covering power and tinting strength. Artists in attendance will
learn rules such as fat over lean that will help them create paintings of long-
lasting permanence as well as fundamentals of colour mixing, pigment
characteristics and introduction to Winsor & Newton Liquin alkyd mediums.
Join Olivia and show up with your oil painting questions so she can help
you on your oil painting journey.
Who is this for?
Artists, hobbyists and beginners interested in exploring oil painting, or getting a little technical refresher.
