Product info

In their quest to find a printmaking method that didn't require a studio with high-end supplies, designers Hantke and Grassmann discovered kitchen lithography, which uses common household items such as aluminum foil, vegetable oil, and cola to create simple printing plates. Their guide walks crafters through the process of creating and etching the printing plate and using the plate to make prints on a variety of surfaces. The authors cover both single-color and multicolor printing, extending the life of the printing plate using gum arabic, and troubleshooting printmaking problems. VERDICT Crafters interested in exploring printmaking without investing a lot of money in pricey supplies will be fascinated by the high-quality results produced by kitchen lithography. Since the technique is so easy and the supplies are nontoxic, it's also a fun rainy-day art project for older children. <br> - Library Journal
