Fast-Drying Oils That Keep Up With Your Pace
Winsor & Newton Griffin Alkyd Oil Colors offer the performance of traditional oils with the added benefit of faster drying times—perfect for artists who want to work quickly without sacrificing quality. Formulated with an alkyd resin modified by a non-yellowing drying oil, these genuine oil paints reach a touch-dry state within 18 to 24 hours. This allows for glazing, layering, and impasto techniques to be executed in a fraction of the time, making Griffin Alkyds ideal for artists who work on tight schedules or prefer quicker results in their painting process.
These artist-grade colors maintain the optical depth, rich flow, and lightfastness of traditional oils while drying to a durable, semi-gloss finish that resists yellowing over time. Griffin Alkyds are compatible with conventional oil colors and can be thinned with traditional solvents. When paired with mediums like Liquin, they offer outstanding clarity and luminosity for refined glazing techniques. Whether painting outdoors, in the studio, or on deadline, Griffin Alkyds deliver speed, versatility, and vibrant, long-lasting color.
