Experiment with all the freedom and subtlety of a lithograph without grinding stones and with minimal processing. Photo Lithography Weekend takes place Saturday-Sunday on the following dates:
10 & 11th May 2025
4 & 5th October 2025
Explore layering images in colour to create painterly prints with a delicacy of mark and tone, characteristic to this medium.
This course concentrates on using light-sensitive aluminium photo plates. These plates can produce detailed marks such as painterly washes, linear drawings, photocopied images, photographs, digital images, and text. Participants will learn how to print their images in several coloured layers onto paper. Each layer of colour is printed individually, taking care to register each new layer of ink on top of previously printed colours.
Additional Dates: 05 October 2025
