This workshop will give you a good understanding of painting on Yupo paper, a non porous synthetic paper. There are myths (fears) floating around about how hard or tricky Yupo painting is. However, there is a bright side to this medium as well. I will introduce some techniques that will ease your mind about Yupo and may help you to get involved with this unique way of painting. I will provide Yupo paper, some brushes and paints. Please bring your watercolor paints and palette if you have them.
