What it is
Winsor & Newton Griffin Alkyd Oil Colour — a fast-drying oil paint for painters who want oil quality without the long wait.
The materials
Griffin is formulated with alkyd resin rather than traditional linseed oil, which dramatically accelerates drying: colours are touch-dry in 18–24 hours. Pigment load is equivalent to the Artists’ range and the working properties — blending, impasto, glazing — are indistinguishable from conventional oil.
Who it’s for
Plein air painters who can’t wait days for layers to dry, studio painters who work over multiple sittings, and artists who want to use oil techniques for illustration or commercial work with tighter deadlines.
How to use it
Use with alkyd or liquin-based mediums to accelerate drying further if needed. Can be mixed with conventional oil paints but adding Griffin to traditional oil slows the drying benefit significantly.
Why we stock it
Griffin fills a genuine gap — the painter who loves oil but needs it to move faster. It’s a serious, professional option.
