We are
equipped to do solar plate intaglio and relief printing, dry
point and a variety of monoprint techniques. We are not equipped
to do lithograph, etching or any method requiring large quantities
of toxic chemicals.
Most of
the inks we use are waterbase (because of our aversion to
toxic chemicals), but this is not a point of doctrine. The
occassional introduction of oil based inks to the studio will
not result in being burned at the stake.
Another
specialty at Alchemical Eye Studios is the combination of
traditional and digital printmaking techniques. We have a
large format printer using archival inks and we are more openminded
than most service bureaus about what materials we will run
through it. Large format printing runs about $7 a square foot
depending on what material you are printing on and whether
you provided it or we did.
