Lithography is a printmaking process that involves drawing on a flat stone (usually limestone) or a metal plate with a greasy substance. The image can be created with oily crayons, pencils, or liquid. Water is then applied to the stone or plate, which is repelled by the greasy areas. When ink is applied, it sticks only to the greasy drawing and is repelled by the wet areas, allowing the image to be transferred to paper.
