Yupo is the world’s first erasable watercolor paper!
Yupo is a unique alternative to traditional watercolor papers. It's an incredibly durable, stain-resistant, non-absorbent synthetic paper that holds ink with razor sharp precision. This extraordinary surface also resists tearing and buckling and it remains perfectly flat. As a watercolor paper it has the special advantage of being non-absorbent so colors sit on top of its surface. This feature makes the color much more brilliant than with standard watercolor papers and allows you to completely wipe off unwanted sections of your painting.
