I recently had lunch with Catherine Emile, and she was telling me about working with Yupo paper. I was intrigued by what she had to say, and I was blown away by one of her pieces (called "Doubt") that she made on Yupo, so I decided to give it a try. As the upside down text above says: Here are the first two pieces that I made with the Yupo paper. Working with this paper is definitely different than working with regular paper or canvas.
