Intro to Stone Lithography
Instructor:
Jamie-Lee GirodatLocation:
460 42 Ave SEDate/Time:
Tuesdays and Thursdays, November 17, 19, 24, 26, December 1, and 3
Cost:
$385Let us demystify stone lithography! A process that is more than 200 years old and uses an image drawn on a limestone to make hundreds of prints! In this process, an image is drawn using greasy materials. You can even use butter! The painterly marks achieved are unmatched to other techniques. Lucky for us, Alberta Printmakers is one of the few places in the province that offers lithography stones and equipment for use!
This course is suitable for all levels with no prior experience needed. Participants will learn how to prepare, draw, etch, and print a litho stone to make a small edition.

One-on-One Tutorials
Looking for a refresher or to hone your existing skillset? A One-On-One Tutorial might be right for you!
These tutorial options are designed for those who have pre-existing skills and would either like a refresher or a short session (minimum of 3 hours) with an instructor who is knowledgeable in an intermediate technique to grow your existing know-how.
We can mainly coordinate sessions with instructors who are experienced in lithography, etching/intaglio, relief, and silkscreen processes.
Contact us with your one on one inquiry and we will be in touch with you to discuss tutorial options and rates.
Please note: one on one tutorials are not as comprehensive as a workshop and do not serve as a workshop substitute. A/P staff may require several weeks lead time to make arrangements with potential instructors, and scheduling these tutorials is subject studio and instructor availability.
