Unlike relief or intaglio printing, the image is created on a flat surface by drawing with greasy materials, which are then chemically processed to attract ink only where the drawing exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this workshop, we use \u003cstrong\u003eplate lithography\u003c\/strong\u003e, a modern adaptation of the traditional stone process.
