Struggling with Yupo
led me to look for ways other artists have dealt with this tricky painting material. I discovered Sandrine Pelissier’s website and blog. Not only has she mastered Yupo, but also she generously shares step-by-step demonstrations, tips and techniques Her nude painting that I’ve featured here is one of my favorites. Amazingly Sandrine is a self taught artist and is proficient in all media
Sandrine grew up in France and has been living in Vancouver for the last 10 years.. Since 2010, she has been an associate member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, and exhibited in numerous juried exhibitions in Canada and in the United States.

Not only have I been struggling with Yupo, this new Blogger upgrade has given me fits.I have to contentiously go back and edit before the post looks acceptable right. Grrrrr-r
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this on Yupo and Sandrine Pellissier -- between you and Mary Ann, I am intrigued by this Yupo. Must give it a go!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do Kelly. I think you'll be fascinated.I look forward to the day I can have as much control over it as Sandrine.
ReplyDeleteHi, I've tried Yupo, but gave up on it. After seeing what your featured artist, Sandrine has done with it using acrylics, I may give it another try. Thanks for the intro.
ReplyDeleteI have not tried acrylics on Yupo yet. I guess I like the idea of being able to wipe the paint off if I don't like what I've done and I'm determined to make the watercolor work for me. ;D However, I do plan to give it go down the road.
