This painting was made with oil paint on yupo paper, a unique combination. Yupo is an artists’ paper made of recycled plastic. The piece was mounted on board using acid- free materials. The combination of oil on yupo allows for portions of the oil paint to be scraped, revealing base layers. It is framed with a natural wood gallery frame.
