Lith.


– some lith prints on foma matte nature 532-11 using LD20

concentration- A-30ml + B-30ml + 1600ml H20 @ 21’c + 400ml old brown to make up 2l working solution in a 12 x 16 tray.

There’s something about printing lith that feels right. Unlike conventional B&W there’s much more subjective control in the actual printing and trying to find a method to the seemingly random madness of the lith chemical is kind of interesting. Lith printing process has this kind of quality about it that forces you to improvise a lot more.
