YInMn Blue – would you like a chance to win a tube?

Another 2-year celebration giveaway for one random winner:

5 ml tube of YInMn Blue (made by QoR Watercolor)

Why is this so special?

Thought you’d never ask…

 

.

.

 

 

It is the first new inorganic blue in over 200 years!   

This color was created in the Oregon State University lab by Dr. Mas Subramanian and his team.

 

 

 

Since this is such a new color, supply is limited, so getting a tube is like getting a first edition of a book!  It is exciting!

It is about 6 times more expensive than Cobalt because one of its components, Indium, is a rare earth element.

How do you enter?

• make a comment to Diann’s post in our Facebook group, and share your favorite blue.  (my favorite blue is Manganese blue in case you were wondering. lol)
• Winner will be chosen randomly and announced around 6 p.m. ET, September 29, 2021.
