First try on Yupo

Comment Finished date 2009-07-05
This is my very first try on Yupo (plastic paper).

I was trying to do a background wash with indigo but used to much water and it was splashing all around, finally I just trew on some salt and layed the paper down to dry.

Type of paint Winsor & Newton Artist: Indigo + Salt
Paper Yupo
Size 13 x 18 cm
Reference Imagination

When I got back to it, this winter wonderland had appeared. Polar bears seamed appropriate. It was really easy to lift the colour to paint the bears.

I also used this as a christmas card in 2009
