Lithographs – hand printed, small limited editions

I work on every stage of my lithographs myself in this old traditional print making technique, starting with graining the slab of Bavarian limestone so it has a smooth surface on which to work. Next is drawing and painting the image, then etching it before proofing. The surface of the litho stone is kept damp while printing so as the oil based ink only adheres to the image. The paper is laid on the top of the stone and the edition is printed using an litho press.

This whole process is repeated for each colour after which the stone is grained once more so it can used over and over again for many years. The results are small editions as denoted by numbers in the bottom left corner. For example, 1/10 is number one of an edition of ten.

These lithographs can be supplied unframed, in mounts or framed.
