Photo Lithography on Clay: A Surprisingly Simple Way to Print Images On Clay - KRISTINA BOGDANOV

[@bluegreen1548]

I find her tone of voice and the speed at which she spoke very relaxing. I found this helpful for me. It seems I absorbed her lesson more thoroughly. Thank you.

[@mariancastro-palanyk8904]

Thank you for being so descriptive and precise. I will be able to teach my students this technique from your demonstration.

[@christinemontano6607]

What she means is you need laser toner so if you own a laser printer you CAN print at home. Some of us do own laser printers. Inkjet ink copiers and printers do NOT work. Thank you great video.

[@Lyddiebits]

Thank you for saving me from a lot of work that won't...work!!! I thought ai could go to Bi-Mart and print/copy my pix to transfer to mugs. Thank you!

[@rstang5913]

Thanks for clarifying that!

[@CaroleMatheson]

Excellent demonstration. Thank you ❤

[@redhotsweetpotatoe]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful technique. My head is already spinning with ideas on how to use this.

[@Venina-f9z]

Hi Cristina! I saw your section on clay photolithography and I was very impressed! I am a beginner in ceramics, retired, with all the time to study and learn. I would really like it if you clarified the composition of the paint. I watched your video several times and couldn't figure it out. thank you very much! Congratulations on your brilliant talent!!

[@puggilove]

wonderful tutorial! your calm voice conveyed the info perfectly thank you! :)

[@aleksandraalexander4506]

Great video! Excellent demonstration, thanks...

[@parthadey9373]

Thanks again for this unique share

[@alicewyan]

What the gum arabic does is make the white areas of the image repel the ink, not the other way around.

[@BilliePosters]

and the toner areas attract it :) dual process

[@rabwoody264]

Could you use a Muller to mix the ink? Thanks, I enjoyed you level tones as you explained concept.

[@incilakay2303]

so good teaching,,,,,,,,,,thanks a lot

[@raquelc6862]

Great explanation, many thanks

[@mirellagagliardi965]

Thank you ! Fantastic tone of voice.

[@manvanGod75]

yes yes! made me fall a sleep

[@davidmatthew7658]

Thank You so much.. awesome video!

[@audreyh6628]

excellent tutorial

[@edithclark4950]

I see that the images transfer well at ^06 through ^6. Can you go higher, for example to ^10??? Thanks very much for this excellent tutorial.

[@myeyearts1775]

awesome!!

[@RM-lu4hy]

What paper did everyone use?

[@faroushb]

is it most important that this process is done on wet leather hard clay? can it be done on bisque ware?

[@skidz8426]

Have you tried this on bisque ware yet. Or did you get an answer.

[@davidmatthew7658]

It needs to be baked on like glaze, and hardened so it stays on. It will not work on bisque, and needs to be applied to moist leather hard, then fired in the kiln. There is iron in the ink and it needs to be fired so it adheres like glaze.

[@jasveensabharwal]

hi! Can you please mention the 2 ingredients used to make the ink as the voice is not very clear for me to get the exact words.. Thanks!

[@elmapache3792]

+jasveen sabharwal It's linseed oil, the raw kind. You find it at healthy grocery shop, it's edible. Second is ingredient is mason stain, but you can use any good quality pigment.

[@davidmatthew7658]

mason stain and linseed oil

[@zaisami8364]

Please I need to know when I apply this technique I will applied on clay or burn clay

[@redharrier8273]

She said on wet leather-hard clay - so unfired clay that is drying and still somewhat wet, and behaves like the way leather would bend and behave. If the clay is already fired, I'm guessing the colorant may not stick to the clay. If it does stick, the clay would still need to be re-fired to make the color permanent.

[@Totallyarealpersonbro]

What can you use for other colors? Red, yellow, green...?

[@desertnights72]

Here is a piece from Sheffield pottery which has all sorts of info for us. www.sheffield-pottery.com/Mason-Stains-s/8.htm

[@manvanGod75]

yes even pink

[@ahmadagt9122]

Hello, do not be tired. You help me learn lithography. I tried very hard but it didn't work. Help me learn thank you

[@lorrainedarconte917]

Can these be high fired, cone 10?

[@BilliePosters]

Yes cone 6 is higher than cone 10 go figure and she is firing it to 1300 (cone 6)

[@postalpotter7398]

No cone 10 is hotter then ^6 ^06 is hotter then ^010

[@beatrizassismelo]

What could be a substitute to linseed oil? Which other oxides can be used instead o mason stain and Mg

[@emilyblythejones]

Bia Melo in oil painting, I substitute walnut oil as it’s easier for me to get at the grocery store. It’s another drying ink just like linseed. I’m going to give this a shot at some point with the walnut oil as it’s what I have on hand.

[@Lyddiebits]

@@emilyblythejones have you tried this? One commenter said a regular copy machine won't work, it has to be a lazer jet printer, do you know about that?

[@emilyblythejones]

@@Lyddiebits I haven’t tried the walnut oil yet, I was actually hoping to within the next week or two. It doesn’t matter what kind of printer or copier you use with photo lithography, it just needs to be toner rather than inkjet. Most copy machines are toner, but theoretically, people have combo inkjet machines that could be throwing them off. @Miller Mommy, you might have already been aware of that. Xerox copiers are just a brand that have become ubiquitous with toner copies over time. Just like Kleenex!

[@Lyddiebits]

@@emilyblythejones well that's good news about the printer, because the other post said Lazer printer...and I don't know a lot about them😂.

[@Lyddiebits]

@@emilyblythejones i hope it works for you!! Now I want to take my pictures and put them on mugs! Thank you!

[@aishag4325]

I notice that the plate was fired to 06, so you wouldn't be able to use it asa plate for food would you? Great teaching video. Thanks heaps!😃

[@BilliePosters]

Yes its glazed so of course you can - it may be more fragile than stoneware fire clays, but if it's glazed there's absolutely no reason not to eat off it unless there is toxins like lead

[@joycemuir9343]

What side of the paper is put on the clay?

[@elmerkilred159]

The printed inked side.

[@beckybuttermint]

Excellent tutorial! One question, Acacia gum (or gum arabic) is really hard to get in my country. I can find it in powder but not in liquid form. Is there an alternative product I could use instead?

[@alicewyan]

The liquid form is just the powder diluted in water. It may take a day or two to fully dissolve, depending on the particle size, so let it soak.

[@mary-annebain5311]

6

[@BilliePosters]

Use boiling water and a 1 to 10 parts ratio, don't use it till it's room temperature and viscous

[@nazerulben-dzulkefli4084]

Mod podge works too

[@ahmadagt9122]

Hello, did you teach in writing? Thank you

[@julianavelezart]

IS This only work with masón Stains?

[@manvanGod75]

no this is only work not

[@bridgetmacklinceramics7464]

I am not having any success with this technique. I wonder what I am doing wrong. I have a laser copy, I am using black masons stain. I had to buy powdered gum arabic so maybe my solution is the wrong consistency but other than that, I have no idea what else to check. I just seem to end up with a muddy puddle - really disappointing!

[@melina5246]

It's because it's laser copy, you need xerox in toner

[@gingerplumcat]

The video quality is not so great.

[@plips71755]

What an awful video image wise. Very difficult to view. Please redo so we can clearly see.

[@Lyddiebits]

You can't see it? Maybe your screen is too dark, they are bicycles, I can see it just fine.

[@BilliePosters]

Dont be such a snarky dog lol the information is all there even if their camera resolution leaves a lot to be desired.
