Beginners Stone Lithography for Artists: 3 Days

This course is designed for artists and printmakers to build skills in stone lithography over three whole days in the studio. You’ll use traditional lithographic pencils and wash to draw directly on a grained lithographic limestone to create painterly and expressive marks.

You’ll also be shown some more experimental mark making techniques which can be incorporated too! With guidance from experienced tutors you will learn how to creatively use the tools of the process to suit your own practice. This class covers different approaches to mark making, deletions, colour mixing and registration.

You’ll be predominately working in monochrome, but colour can be introduced if time allows. For all skills levels. No previous lithography experience is needed.

The course runs on Friday 23rd, Saturday 24th & Sunday 25th October 2026 from 10am - 4pm each day.

Minimum fitness level required.

Age restrictions: 18+

Adult (3 day course, 10am - 4pm each day) £295
