Hello, accomplices! Join me, Lynda Norman, in my studio as we dive into the world of painting with watercolor on YUPO, a unique non-absorbent paper. Discover how to harness the vibrant, fluid qualities of watercolor on this smooth, synthetic surface for beautiful, unexpected effects. We’ll cover techniques, tips, and the challenges of working with YUPO, and I’ll share my favorite tricks to create dynamic skies, landscapes, and textural elements. Perfect for artists looking to experiment beyond traditional watercolor paper. Don’t forget to subscribe and follow along for more creative journeys! Try out my favoutite brush - the medium Goat/synthetic blend (1.5" bristle with bamboo cane handle) from Lebenzon Brushes.

My first choice for paints is always DANIEL SMITH - they can be found at: https://amzn.to/4hGuOku My go-to colours are Mayan Dark Blue; Undersea Green; Quinacridone Gold; and Moonglow. Since Moonglow is considered a fugitive colour and not as lightfast as some, you can also try Lunar Violet with a touch of Quinacridone Purple Yupo Paper: https://amzn.to/3EuAeRi Happy Painting!
