YUPO OLDIE

This is one of my much earlier YUPO paintings. In a couple of weeks, I'll be teaching a weekend workshop with YUPO, sharing many diverse techniques and processes that can be used when painting on this slick and wonderful surface.

The workshop's focus is on experimentation and discovery, and we'll be delving into lots of different mediums while we create one of a kind works of art. I'm really looking forward to having the studio full of artists brimming with their wonderful creative energies. We will have a great time, I know.

YUPO A LITTLE FISHY

I'm posting older paintings right now including some of the first YUPO paintings I tried. Anything with bright colors seemed a natural for YUPO, and the fish theme worked very well.
I used rubbing alcohol to 'draw in' the white coral, resulting in blobbery edges that I liked. Very thin layers of filaments from halloween webbing created the thin dark lines, and I removed it after the paint dried. Paint on a tissue made some good foliage texture, too.
