Stone Litho Refresher Class
If you've recently done a class but haven't returned to the studio to do an induction within a month then your next step is to attend a refresher class. The refresher course is 5.5 hours of teaching time and is hands on. During this time we will run through the process in brief covering each step: stone processing, registration, setting up to print, ink mix, setting up the press and printing.
This is a hands on course so bring an image with you so you have something to work with on the day. Being a short class, we won’t spend much time with image development so it helps if you have something simple with you to work from.
Time spent in Refresher Class gives you experience and counts towards your workshop induction so you become familiar with using the studio. Once you have attended a refresher course you will be eligible to take out a membership with all of the associated benefits.
Lithography has many steps, so please bring a notebook so you can refer back to your notes when you work independently in the studio.
Who are refresher sessions for?
- For lapsed members of EP
- Printmakers with good experience in a specific process but are new to EP
- People who have completed a weekend course in Stone Lithography but are looking for some more support/assistance to build up confidence before working in the studio
Please Note:
This course is NOT suitable for people with no experience in Stone Lithography - (our weekend access courses are intended for those new to a process) If you are unsure if you are suitably experienced to attend, we ask that you email us in advance of booking at alastair.clark@edinburghprintmakers.co.uk with the following information:
- When was the last time you did stone lithography?
- What courses have you attended and where?
- Do you have examples of prints you have printed yourself using this process? If possible, please share some images.
- What other print studios have you worked in?
Some people will be required to attend more than one refresher session before gaining access to membership and working unassisted in the print studio. This will be dependent on each individual's previous experience and the complexity of the particular print process.
