This handbook combines creative artistic expression with scientific discipline to provide a practical discussion of solar printmaking. It includes instructions and tips, as well as a comprehensive troubleshooting guide. Diagrams, charts and step-by-step photographs illustrate the text, while images created by artists such as Eric Fischl and David Salle show the diverse ways of working in this medium.
