Polyester plate lithography, also called pronto plate lithography, is a non-toxic method created by George Roberts at Boise State University. With this method, you can reproduce the full spectrum of lithographic marks, such as hand-drawn brush strokes, ink wash, texture, crayon and pencil marks. It is equally well suited for digital imaging.
To participate, bring some ideas about what you want to achieve. You may also bring watercolor paintings, old prints, or anything you'd like to try printing on. This process lends itself to adding to old ideas to make new art.
All paper and supplies will be provided, but you are welcome to bring your own paper. Rice papers, old prints and printmaking paper are best. Just be aware that not all paper types work in this medium.
