Alternative Lithography is a practical and beautiful guide to planographic printmaking techniques that depend upon the principle of water and grease repelling each other. Lithography traditionally used stone, but this book showcases the range of new techniques that are being developed with, for example, foil, wood and lino as a matrix. Showing how lithography can be affordable and accessible, it explains versatile and exciting processes that give artists an unparalleled range of tonality and mark making. Step-by-step sequences explain the process, examples show the types of marks that can be achieved and troubleshooting notes make this book a complete reference for all printmakers interested in exploring these new ideas for lithography.
