Simple Home Lithography: Create Beautiful Prints with Aluminum
Are you passionate about art and searching for a new creative outlet? Do you love the idea of printmaking but feel unsure where to start? Or are you a self-taught artist eager to refine your skills and create stunning prints?
Lithography on aluminum foil and plate are techniques that anyone can learn.
I designed this course for art enthusiasts of all levels, from absolute beginners to those with some experience. You'll learn to bring your ideas to life by blending classic printmaking techniques with modern innovations in lithography.
Hi, I'm Valerie,
I am a printmaker specializing in relief print and lithography, with a strong focus on hand-printed techniques. My process begins with figurative drawings that evolve through sketches and further transformation during platemaking and printing. This journey allows me to explore the inner world of my subjects, resulting in a series of unconventional portraits that reflect on existence and perceptions of self.
Born in Ottawa, Canada, I earned a BFA from Concordia University in 2008. In 2010, I was honored to be selected as a Japanese Government (MEXT) Scholar, which led me to Tokyo. There, I completed an MFA in printmaking at Tokyo University of the Arts, specializing in ball grain plate lithography. Printmaking remains my primary form of expression, with a focus on hand-printed techniques. Over the years, I have held solo exhibitions in Canada, Japan, Australia, Norway, and Korea, and I’ve participated in numerous group exhibitions and artist residency programs worldwide.
