Lagit four color sep.  I use technology in printmaking when it is appropriate, and I give the artist I work with the option to use those tools when necessary, especially when their main work IS digital. But it is easy to forget, and perhaps not even have learned, of the printmakers that came before us.

Consider this hand drawn four color separation on stone done by the Unione Tipografico-Editrice Torinese, just shy of 100 yeas after the invention of lithography. Right? The lithographers and chromist that did this work truly paved the path for color printing as it is today…..sweet and easily done with proper training. Oh, and photoshop don’t hurt.

Also, those two are definitely going to f.
