Lithography is a centuries-old printmaking process in which a drawing is etched into a stone or plate using acid and gum arabic. Kitchen Litho uses the same principles as traditional litho, but utilizes non-toxic household products such as cola, tinfoil, and vegetable oil! In this course, you’ll learn how to create and print from a kitchen litho setup, which can easily be replicated in your home or studio!
No prior experience is necessary.
