Beginning Lithography - Indifferent Honest





A little bit about the process on this second image: I printed everything in red, then snake slipped and etched the hell out of the two figures in the foreground, printed it in blue, then ground down the stone with really fine carborundum so I could still see the image and added the background figures and printed the final layer. Yay printmaking!

Beginning Lithography - Our Elizabethan Friends




These are both autographic ink on lithographic plates, so less hardcore than stone but still unnecessarily complicated.

Waterbase Silkscreen - Final Playbill(s)

Remember this? We had to keep going with it and do something else with the image so that turned into this project.


Originally I wanted the red to be magenta but I was stupid and didn't account for the fact that the ink was translucent. But thanks to the power of photoshop we can pretend that wasn't the case.


Ta-da!
