- Lithography is a printing process based on the fact that grease and water don’t mix. A greasy material, such as a special crayon, is used to draw an image onto a surface (traditionally stone but sometimes metal).
When a roller loaded with oil-based ink is rolled over the stone or plate, the ink is repelled by the wet surface and instead, sticks to areas drawn over with the greasy drawing tool. Once this surface is printed onto paper it creates the image in ink.
Watch Lithography Printer and Tutor Nora Hammenberg, Stone Tree Press, show you how to create lithographic prints in this step-by-step guide.
Only video online that I could find. Thank you from Texas!
Thank you for this. It helped to make sense of the whole process and really shows the amount of work that goes into this style of printmaking.
Exactly
This is one of the best descriptions I’ve heard thank you
Many thanks for producing this video! I had only a vague idea of this process so this video is extremely eye opening! I’m reading a book about Alphonse Mucha and appreciate his artistry and skill even more after seeing this. I imagine color lithography is even more complex?
I wished this was made during my first few years of art school
I feel lucky..
Way cool! Thank you for your time. Seriously I've seen prints on stones before, but til today I never had a clue what it was called or how it was done.. Sure is alot of work!!
Me: "Wow, I wanna do lithography at home! Like in the good old day."
Also me after watching the video: "aaaalright, so click on photoshop... print..."
Great video, well explained and demonstrated. Thank you.
So interesting! Great video.
how this seems like so much effort as a designer I'm so glad we have computers now
It's worth it.
Amazing work, so talented . It's magnificent ❤ thank you
Thank you that was super informative! Just the video I was looking for!
Wow very very specific
I wonder how they found these things out
very nice explanations . Thankyou.
Super helpful and clear. Thanks.
Very well done
So cool thanks for making this video! *thumbs up* indeed
Awesome. So the acid burns everything in the background but the drawing, or the other way around? Does it lower the level slightly so the ink fills in? So many questions?
I'm interested in how old photos were turned into line lithos for books.
Are you sure you're referring to real photos and not just well depicted illustrations?
It's called chromolithography. It produced *amazing* prints.
who the hell came up with this
Alois Senefelder. He was a German actor who invented the technique initially to print musical scores in the 1790s.
Yeah right
THANK YOU
Just to clarify, she is not using a traditional leather roller though she talks about one in the video. They are hand-sewn on wooden handles. She is using a rubber one that is normally used with color inks. You can look up the differences online with photos.
So a lithograph is with a stone and an etching is with a plate? Thanks! 😃
Can we do first etch just after the drawing gets finished? Or the stone should be left for some hours?
Rembrandt did these. I assume that he did them after he was established and he had someone else doing the laborious steps and he did the drawing....
I’m gonna get her to make me a perfect replica of the T206 Honus Wagner card hehe
Question: What do you do to the stone after you're done printing the image?
@RAST I assumed the OP meant, when you've pulled your final print - _then_ what happens to the stone? Or maybe she didn't...
Stones can have the top most layer ground off using grit and a levigator! Then you can draw a new image on it and do a new print run. Alternatively, the stine with an image can be sealed for storage (protects the image) and reopened at a later time to print another run of that image
It just stays there as a relic until (if) you want to use it again.
This always blows my mind! Leave it to a debt ridden playwrite to figure out how to print his own stuff😂
Too much work I'll stick to crayons thanks
Just by her accent I can tell she knows what she’s doing and that she’s good at it to
So, an easy process?
😊
Liverpool, Liverpool.
Liverpool Liverpool.
Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool
🤔👍👍👍👍👍👍
These modernists are everywhere, I'm done with it.
😅
What an unreasonably specific gripe!
@@Tubeytime ah ok, thought it was another comment section. Well, 仕方ないですね。
@@Tubeytime But anyway, if you're not happy about listening to such a opinion, since most people are modernists you're not just disagreeing with me, you are in love with the world as it is (assuming only). In a way, happy for it if that is the case since not many people are happy, so we are two minorities, yours at least in a good way.
The other way around, you are then not happy or not much at least, but also not willing to discuss without tagging (with this unreasonably thing), just because It was something going the contrary direction. Thank you for letting me practice writing with you.
@@ryushogun9890 No problem!
This weird lady doesnt explain things clearly.. how does that stone retain those marks which were used by merely sketching on the stone?
did u even pay attention
The nose ring does not compliment...
dang, sorry you were distracted bro.
I have one just to deter people like you from speaking to me :D
I wish the video had a normal woman describing the process, her cow ring is so disturbing! She could at least remove it. She seems fine without it.
god forbid people express themselves
