Explorations in Lithography

Explorations in Lithography
September 22 - October 20, 2026

Ermitanya Editions invites 8 artists into the workshop to experiment with drawing materials designed for lithography and get test prints of their exploratory marks. No prior experience with lithography or printmaking is necessary.

The sessions are designed for artists who are:

• curious about lithography as a means to create imagery and want to experience mark-making with materials specific to the medium

• are looking to explore collaboration with an artisan-printer to create original, limited edition fine art prints, yet unsure if the medium is a good fit for their work or way of working

What the artist will receive:

• One-on-one guidance and consultation with the lead printer

• Practical information on drawing materials for lithography (dry and wet media) and time to make exploratory marks with these materials on an aluminum plate with drawing area of 11”x15”

• Two proofs in black on heavyweight printmaking paper from a selection of bright white, off-white, and cream papers (paper size: 11”x15”)

Cost: $95 for a 4-hour, one-on-one session (tax included)

Schedule: Sessions will take place on Tuesdays, Fridays, or Saturdays from either 9:00am-1:00pm or 1:00pm-5:00pm
