I paint with watercolor paints on Arches 140 lb. cold press paper. I often start a painting with a series of wet-on-wet transparent washes and transition to a wet brush on dry paper for the more controlled and detailed finish work. I use masking fluid sparingly to block out the white areas, if necessary. My subjects are varied and I paint in a realistic style. On occasion, I will paint watercolor onto Yupo medium. The technique for painting watercolor on Yupo is a totally different beast!
I also use Alcohol Ink on Yupo and on ceramic tiles to create vibrant works of art in a more abstract style.
