While I was studying at Akademia Sztuk Pieknych I attended a stone lithography course for six months.
It is a printing method originally based on the immiscibility of oil and water, which is performed on a granular stone from the Solenhofen cave. Firstly, an image is drawn with oil, fat, or wax and then the surface is treated with a mixture of acid, gum arabic and talc. Finally, an oil based ink is applied and the ink is transferred to a blank paper sheet producing a printing page.
