Silver Birch – Yupo

Description

This is a watercolour painting on Yupo Paper, which is a synthetic plastic paper that does not absorb the paint. The paint lies on the surface and dries by evaporation so the result is more vibrant colour. This type of paper lends itself to a more loose style of watercolour as you can’t overlay the wash without disturbing the first layer. The print is on a smooth matt paper that shows up the wash to good effect.
