Lithography

Just a quick post today :) At the beginning of this new term I signed up for a Lithography workshop. Below is the outcome. Basically, you grind down the surface of a pretty big stone to make it nice and smooth, then you draw directly on to it with a litho crayon. It's quite an intensive process but the advantage to this process is that the end print comes out almost exactly like how you see it on the stone plate and you can get a much more varied range of marks as apposed to etching.
