Lith Prints Explained
Using ordinary black & white negatives, Lith printing is a very creative printing process and the results are unlike conventional black and white printing in several respects. The prints produced using this technique can often be described as looking more graphic but may also be soft and subtle.
Lith prints are colourful even before toning and may contain warm coloured mid and light tones to high contrast cold coloured shadow tones. The process is so unique that no two prints will look exactly the same.
No previous experience of Lith printing is required to take part in this workshop and all materials are included in the fee. However, a basic knowledge of how to make a B&W enlargement is required. Each participant will have an enlarger allocated to them to make prints during the day.
Early booking is advised as this is one of our post popular workshops.
