Printmaking Materials: Lithography Materials

Description: Lithography is a printmaking technique that uses a flat stone or metal plate to create an image. The image is drawn on the plate with a greasy crayon or ink, and then the plate is dampened with water. The water repels the grease, so the ink only adheres to the areas that were drawn on with the crayon or ink. The plate is then inked, and the ink is transferred to a sheet of paper, creating a print.
