Stone Lithography 3-day Summer School with Paul Croft RE TMP RCA 22 – 24 July £395
Translated literally, Lithography means ‘to write on stone’ and it works on the principle that water and oil do not mix. Stone Lithography is a technique still favoured by many artists because it offers the opportunity to draw and paint directly onto a unique tactile drawing surface, allowing the artist to create a huge range of marks and tones in their images. At the end of this three-day summer school you will leave with a small edition of your work and a deeper knowledge of this exciting medium.
