Vinta Leyte


- Colour: Warm, seaweed green.
- Special Attributes:
- Shade: Yes, it does show a different between light shade and dark.
- Sheen: None.
- Shimmer: Nope.
- Watercolour Usage: This runs very well with water, and it cools as well, which I find lovely. It seems to separate the yellow from the blue with water and I love that.
- Harkens to Mind: Sea kelp, they got the name spot on. It’s also very mossy and licheny. It’s earth and sea!
- Similar to: Very close to Rohrer & Klingner Alt Goldgrun.
- Expense: $14.50/30ml as of 2023.
- Example: An actress from the late 1800s whose name I should have written down but did not.

Verdict
If it weren’t so similar to Alt Goldgrun, I would own it. When I run out of that, though, I think I’ll buy this instead.
