Aluminium Plate Lithography for Artists Weekend

Build skills in aluminium plate lithography over two days. Ideal for beginners and those progressing to the summer intensive workshop. This course is designed for artists and printmakers to build skills in aluminium plate lithography over two whole days in the studio. You'll use traditional lithographic pencils and wash to draw directly on a grained lithographic plate to create painterly and expressive marks. You'll also be shown some more experimental mark making techniques which can be incorporated too! With guidance from experienced tutors you will learn how to creatively use the tools of the process to suit your own practice. This class covers different approaches to mark making, deletions, colour mixing and registration. You'll be predominately working in monochrome, but colour can be introduced if time allows. For all skills levels. No previous lithography experience is needed.
