YInMn Blue Watercolor Paint

Description

YInMn Blue is our exquisitely hand crafted watercolor paint made with an extremely concentrated, high quality single source pigment. Every pan is meticulously hand mulled, filled, and labeled, using pure local honey, natural gum arabic, and a small amount of food grade sodium benzoate preservative to achieve a concentrated and richly textured pigment.

YInMn Blue is an intense, brilliantly saturated blue made from a stable compound of yttrium, indium, manganese, and oxygen. First discovered in 2009, this inorganic pigment offers a vivid, pure blue with exceptional brightness, high reflectivity, and unmatched permanence. It handles with a smooth, even flow and slight granulation, making it ideal for fine detail, bold washes, and modern or classical palettes seeking purity and strength without fading over time.
