Introducing the Expoguerator!

on Fri, 07/14/2017 - 23:18

The portable Expoguerator created by Skip Klepacki of C.S. Pogue Graphics has an 18 x 24" exposure area and weighs only 16 pounds!  Its riveted aluminium construction makes it lightweight and rugged for studio use at Cherry Press and for teaching positive-working photo processes off-site.  C.S. Pogue's Posi-Coat can be painted on Century Plates to make re-usable photo-litho plates and on copper or aluminium to make photo-etching plates.

Visit from Mark Silverberg Editions

on Fri, 07/14/2017 - 22:47

Mark Silverberg (formerly of Mark Silverberg Editions, Oaxaca, Mexico) came to the studio from Thailand for several days of immersion in non-toxic Century Plate lithography.  Mark is planning to open a new shop in Chiang Mai, where he will return to collaborating on and printing fine art lithographs for artists using re-usable Century Plates and the bio-based biodegradable processing materials invented by Professor Dwight Pogue and Inventor/Engineer Skip Klepacki of C.S. Pogue Graphics. We had a blast printing test plates and pushing the boundries.
