What it is
Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolour 5ml — the standard by which all other watercolours are judged. Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolour is recognised for using only the purest pigments to ensure quality and permanence. A synthetic lake pigment from the Madder plant Alizarin Crimson was the fir
The materials
Each colour is made to its own formulation: the finest pigments ground in gum arabic, with no unnecessary fillers. Winsor & Newton have been refining this process since 1832. Lightfastness ratings are independently assessed — every colour in the range is rated I or II. The result is a watercolour of exceptional transparency and brilliance that handles beautifully wet-on-wet or wet-on-dry.
Who it’s for
Professional watercolourists and serious students who have outgrown the student range. Individual tubes and pans are sold as single colours — mix and match to build your own palette. Whether you work in transparent washes or rely on the paint’s tinting strength for detail, this is the range built for that kind of exacting practice.
How to use it
Apply to quality watercolour paper — 300gsm cold-pressed is the workhorse. Load the brush generously: the high pigment concentration means a little goes a long way. Clean brushes promptly in clean water.
Why we stock it
Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolour is the backbone of our colour range. We’ve stocked it for decades and it remains the one watercolourists come back to when the stakes are high.
