- I've got some tips and techniques for using the synthetic Yupo paper with watercolor paint and Indian ink this week. Last week I was using Distress Oxides on paper and thought it would be fun to play some more with the paper and share the results of using paints with it.
Let me now what you are using with it or if you haven't tried it maybe you are thinking about it? Let me know! I do have some more techniques to share using different materials and you can find them through these links below:

i am glad i learned that india ink can be painted on dry w/c without disturbing it. i want to try it now
Hi, (excuse my english) in my next watercolor course, we will work on Yupo paper. I didn’t know what to do. You inspired me. Thank you.
I just tried oil paints on Yupo and It was very satisfying. I didn’t use any medium because then it was too fluid. The paint out of the tube worked wonderfully. I’m really liking the finish you get with yupp and oils.
Amazing, great demo on different styles and techniques on yupo
I have Yupo paper in black that I’ve used with alcohol ink. I am also a watercolor artist so I am very intrigued and excited to try watercolor on Yupo. I will have to buy some white. I’ve also used India ink in a number of projects with my watercolor which makes them stand out so much more. It’s a great element to create contrast. I’m really glad you posted this and I have selected to follow you. I look forward to seeing what you do next.
Wow! Using the straw with the round shapes made things look organic. I am primarily an abstract acrylic painter but I do create collage with acrylics, Derwent Inktense Blocks, watercolor, etc. I loooooooove this video!
Thanks. I am glad you enjoyed it.
I really love the way this turned out! Anchoring the black with the gold was brilliant!
I am glad you liked it. I did love how the black and gold worked together in this!
What you said about messes sometimes working themselves out (or not) that was so true and it really helped hearing that. I haven't been very happy with anything I've made lately and I'm afraid I'll get so frustrated I'll stop painting altogether (hope not!)
Excellent! I've been painting on Yupo for many years and love the effects of watercolor on Yupo. Works well for both realistic and. Abstract paintings. Great for abstract florals!
Thank you Morris! It's a really interesting surface to work on isn't it? What's your favorite material to use on it?
I received a sample pack of yupo as a gift and recently decided to experiment with it. I used some pearl alcohol ink I have for resin but even with fixative it wipes right off. So I have more experimenting to do! Thank you for the video, it's given me more ideas to try :)
+tahsyr That's interesting. I've not tried pearl or metallic alcohol inks on Yupo yet, so that is good to know! Thanks! Have fun with your experiments.
This is great!, thanks luv.....and, I love your persistence and believe and commentary whilst pushing through the "challenging" phase. Love it! Ta muchly!
Thank you and I am really glad you liked it!
Too Cool!!!😎 Subscribed
Thank you!
I have only used alcohol ink on Yupo. I love that. I want to start watercolor on Yupo to see the difference. I seem to have difficulty painting in watercolor these days, I think it is because I am attracted to abstracts - not what I did in watercolor.
I am glad you liked it Susan and I hope you have fun trying out watercolors on Yupo and maybe doing some watercolor abstracts too 💙🎨
I have some Yupo paper but haven’t used it in a while. :] this video is super inspiring though!! I really love those paints too. ❤️❤️
I'm glad you enjoyed it and I hope you have fun playing with your yupo!
Love this. Looks fun.
Thank you Maria! I am glad you liked it!
Thanks, Kim. Interesting ideas - off to buy some yupo paper!
+Jill Evans have fun with it and let me know how you get on 😁
So lovely to see your work here. Thank you! Your style is amazing and refreshing. Love it! Will subscribe!
Thank you Tina! Welcome to my channel!

This is lovely, Kim
Thank you!
Fabulous technique . Can't wait to try. Interested to know if you have used a Gelli plate with any techniques?
I love how this turned out - Yupo is so much fun to play with! I recently did some experimenting on it with wet into wet with India ink, alcohol ink and acrylic inks and loved it. I'll have to try adding some watercolors into the mix. I think I'm going to have a play with sprays like Glimmer Mist and see how they work too.
+Julie L Ooooo! That sounds great Julie, I would love to see the results. Have you got a place online that people can visit to see them?
No, but thanks for asking!
Hey Guys, have you got any favourite #UsingYupo videos? Let me know and I will link them here so that we can all watch them.
I'll kick us off with these suggestions -
Playlist from +NinaRibena which has lots of different alcohol ink techniques including using on Yupo: bit.ly/2yACwdD

Don't worry if your comment seems to disappear, I will see it in the filter and put it to live.
Looking forward to seeing what you link!
Fabulous, Kim! I have been using Yupo with alcohol ink but need to try it with other mediums. This has really inspired me. I just recently bought the same brand paper as you used on this and I really like it so I’ll try some Indian ink and watercolours on it! Thanks! :)
+Michelle Short super cool! I can't wait to see the results Michelle and I'm glad I could give you a nudge 😍😘
So inspiring
Thank you!
I just got inkjet gloss paper, heard that u can use the front or the backside of the paper. Gonna try it. Also gonna try poster paper.
Love this Kim ❤️
+Nina Ribena thank you Nina 😁 I'm glad you like it.

+Caroline Thomas 😘😘😘
beautiful edgy
Thank you!
I bought the Yupo paper to use with alcohol inks, but I haven't used it yet. Have you used the Mineral paper made of rocks? I have bought it but not used it yet. I would love to see what you could do with it!
I have had my eye on the mineral rock paper, and wondered how it compares, but haven't got it or tried it yet. Let me know how you get on with it when you use yours!
Kim Dellow I will. From my understanding it’s just so similar to the yupo as it doesn’t buckle with loads of wet medium. But, I do think if you heat it, it doesn’t warp though I will let you know how it works!!
I've been thinking about getting some Yupo paper as I see a lot of my friends playing with it and alcohol inks. I had NO idea you could use it with watercolour and ink, so this has really opened my eyes to it. Could I use it to make card backgrounds? It wouldn't ever wear off? And what brand would you recommend and where can I get some? Xx
+Ruth Andrews - Crafting While the Baby Naps hey up, you could easily use it on a card. I shall try it and let you know! It shouldn't rub off if you use watercolour or inks that dry on it, but if you use inks that don't dry well, like the distress oxides for example, then they will rub off. So you might need to use stazon to stamp on it. Acrylic paints dry well and alcohol inks, as you have seen. The only thing you need to worry about is if the yupo gets wet again then the watercolour might come off or smudge. As to brand I usually go on lowest price per sheet, I think it is all yupo, just branded for different companies, I could be wrong. If you go the price route just make sure you are comparing like for like, so make sure the pack size and sheet sizes are the same when you compare your prices! 😁
Kim Dellow Thank you so much. I'll have a look for it. Got a couple of ideas. Need to push myself to get the craftroom sorted so I can get some playtime! Xx
+Ruth Andrews - Crafting While the Baby Naps hey Ruth when you have a moment check out the pinned comment on this video! I've link to a video using yupo to make cards that I just found 😁
kim love what you did with watercolor and india ink. Have you ever tried alcohol ink and watercolor?
Thank you. So I have used alcohol inks and watercolor on yupo but separately! Not together. I would think you would need to layer them as I shouldn't think they would mix. What about you? Have you tried them together?
Hi - Could anyone tell me how to preserve my watercolour Yupo painting now that it is completed? Thanks!
Do you find any fading with yupo and watercolor?
So I haven't had a problem yet but then these Yupo pieces are in a box, so away from any light anyway. But I am thinking that it should be more to do with the lightfastness of the paint and I don't think that yupo will affect that differently to traditional paper, but I've not tested it!
It is not "Indian" ink......it is "India" ink.
Depends which country you are in. I'm in the United Kingdom and it's called 'Indian Ink' here.
"Indian ink" is more commonly used in British English and is also commonly used in some other English-speaking countries, such as Australia and New Zealand. "India ink" is more commonly used in American English, although "Indian ink" is also used in American English to a lesser extent.
