Legion Yupo Translucent Pads

Legion Yupo is a synthetic, 100% polypropylene substrate with a non-porous, non-absorbent surface that repels water. Yupo gives artists an amazingly beautiful canvas to work with. Its translucent, smooth finish gives artists the flexibility to work in several different mediums to achieve unique and creative results. Pigments will retain true clarity and brightness.

Painting or drawing on the ultra-smooth surface of Yupo is different than regular watercolor or drawing paper. The surface may be wiped clean, making it an excellent surface for beginners. What makes it even more unique is its lifting quality. You may return to a painting when it's done and redo specific areas over and over again. You can build up layers of paint and then take them off.

Tip: Remember that water activates paint on Yupo, even paint put down months ago! Allow Yupo to dry completely and then spray with a matte, clear finishing spray to seal and protect it. Only use a sealant when your work is complete, as rework and touch-ups become difficult to do after sealing.

Yupo works great with alcohol inks, watercolors, and acrylic paints. It is exceptionally strong, durable, and not buckle with wet media. 

Legion Yupo Translucent Pads contain 15 x 104 lb (153 gsm) translucent sheets. Choose from available sizes.
