Yupo Paper L21-YUP197W912 White Sheets, 9 x 12, 10 count

Good ppper h

Have never used Yupo paper before so it met my expectations.

Great , but so expensive!

There is no cooler paper for painting with water color or alcohol ink. Here are a few of my examples done on Yupo paper. The non-porous nature allows the ink to not seep in, and you get a lot of great movement and vibrancy as a result of using this paper.

This manufactured material mimics water color paper, but it requires a new style of painting for these reasons--it is very slick, so watery paint will slide unless controlled, and when paint is dried and another wash is applied, the wash will not so much blend with the undercoat but cover it entirely. Plus? You can erase whole paintings in a sink and still have a clean page . Yupo is good for practice.

Hard to emboss on, but otherwise great.

Watercolors covered smoothly. Size works to make 8 x 10 paintings. Wish they made a pad large enough to do 16 x 20s. Arrived quickly.

I’m disappointed with the less quality paper I got... I don’t think it has anything to do with amazon, because I also ordered from Blick website, and I got the same bad quality paper which is different from the last batch I purchased.... I was so shocked in the beginning becuz the ink works totally differently. The bad news is I don’t know any other brand besides Yupo, now I need to spend time doing research.... so sad

Lovely smooth paper for alcohol inks, retains vivid colors. In love!

Bought a pad of Yupo in each size to try something different to stimulate painting. Spent a lot of time working with watercolors to create a couple of paintings worth keeping. You wont hesitate to put a brush on your paper, Yupo is forgiving, easy to fix mistakes or experiment, and completely do-over. These pads of Yupo are fine but the artist needs practice. Next time I experience artist block will try acrylics on Yupo. Its different but has stimulated my painting.
