Oilbar paint sticks from Winsor & Newton Winsor & Newton, one of the world's leading brands in paint, continue to bring innovation to the world of art materials. Here at Cass Art we love the new Winsor and Newton Oilbars, which are exactly as they sound: Artists’ Oil Colour in a handy stick form. These Oilbars let you paint and draw directly onto a surface, combining the buttery consistency and richness achieved from oil painting with the freedom and direct mark-making of pastels and charcoals. These oil sticks have a unique formulation, made by combining pigments with linseed or safflower oil and blending together with specially selected wax. There are 50 colours available and these can be used alone or in collaboration with traditional tube oil paint. Painting with oils has never been so free! Watch these Oilbars from Winsor & Newton in action as artists Robert Rost & Lennaert Koorman get painting in a video produced by Monkidoe. Learn how to apply them and get inspired by their properties. Pigments available from Artists’ Oilbars
The Oil bar range of 50 colours contains 26 single pigment colours for brilliant vibrant colour and clean colour mixing. Consistency & Texture These paint sticks have a unique consistency; when softened and blended, they move freely and are fully intermixable with all Winsor & Newton Artists’ oil paint ranges as well as with other paint bar colours. When an oil medium is added, Oilbar applies very similarly to the traditional tube colours. Surface Sheen As each pigment requires different levels of oil in the formulation, the surface sheen of these Oil bars may differ slightly from colour to colour. The addition of solvent, as well as the use of additive mediums will also alter the sheen.
