Winsor & Newton Griffin 37ml Dioxazine Purple

Winsor & Newton Griffin Alkyd Fast Drying Oil Colour is great for oil painters who like to paint at speed. Griffin dries in half the time of a traditional oil colour and this means impasto and glazing techniques can be done in a single session. Griffins are also a bit more fluid in consistency than traditional oils and they dry with a somewhat more reflective surface, too.

Dioxazine Purple is a vivid mid-shade purple pigment. When undiluted, it can be used as a deep black. It is made from a transparent coal tar pigment and was introduced into the Winsor & Newton range in the 1960s.
