I'm going to be learning stone lithography in August and my instructor said we could use this technique to start with, as i don't have a lot of time to draw my image on the stone.. Im pleased you can still add sketch marks after transferring your photo. Thanks for a very clear demo.

Wow simplicity

How are the grey tones reproduced without a half tone screen ?

Omg this liquid seems so much easier and safer than acetone - acetone evaporates so frigging fast. Now I need to figure out where I get this magic liquid in denmark or just europe

Why a greased scraper bar instead of a roller?

Hi, I’d like to know if you used raster image for it ? If so, what do you reckon for a 300dpi image ? Which halftone looks ok for you on photoshop ? Many thanks in advance.

[@robynmahan2056]

where do you get the estisol or what is a good replacement?

Hi! Any tips when printing the photo on the laser printer? Do I just print out as is?

It's backwards. What if your image has text? Or you just plain don't want it backwards?
