Traditional printmaking involves use of a variety of toxic chemicals to make ink-receptive and non-image areas receptive to water and ink-repellent. This course will introduce several alternative planographic printing techniques such as kitchen litho that is an alternative way of lithography using common materials you have at home such as tin foil, soda and white vinegar and also watercolor monotype and stencil. These techniques are much more accessible, simple processes and can be applied without harmful chemicals.
