Lithography Courses
We run a range of specialist lithography courses at our print studio in Bristol. These courses cover a wide range of techniques to achieve unique lithographs. The courses we run are also aimed at all abilities – from beginners looking to learn the basics to teachers of lithography or artists wishing to expand their knowledge. The courses are run as small group sessions.
One-on-one teaching sessions can also be arranged directly with us, just get in touch! We can travel to your studio to pass on some lithography knowledge to technicians or as part of a group depending on the requirements of the individuals involved. This is especially useful for universities and open access studios who would like to introduce lithography, or revive the practice. We look to collaborate with as many individuals and collectives as possible and are always looking to expand our artist base.

Monoprinting & chine collé masterclass
Monoprinting is a unique form of printmaking where the image can only be made once, unlike most printmaking which creates multiple originals. Chine collé is a special printmaking technique where different coloured or textured paper adheres to your overall piece.
This masterclass course covers everything you’ll need to know.
Transfer printmaking (2 days)
Transfer printmaking is the act of transferring something that’s already been drawn onto another surface. The source materials can be any kind of media that can be manipulated to release from the original surface and bind to a new one.
