From the artist:
CEAHD (pronounced "SEED") Lithography stands for Computer Enhanced Analogue Hand Drawn Lithography. Computer Enhanced refers to the process of scanning and combining plates in the computer and adjusting color values. Analogue Hand Drawn means that each stage of the plates is drawn by hand. If they were drawn via mouse or any other type of computer controlled device, it would not be an analogue process, but rather a digital one.
My method is to draw the plates on different textured surfaces and scan them into the computer using a flatbed scanner. Color is either applied or adjusted in the computer and then printed with a 6 color printer (pigment ink or water based dyes). Some prints are made with separate plates which are scanned separately and registered together in the computer and the colors printed at the same time, or the plates can be printed separately by registering them on the printer much the same as you would do with a press. This method is useful if you wish to build up the thickness of the ink. Other prints are done by re-scanning and reworking the same plate. After that they are sometimes combined with woodblock, stencil and hand coloring. The image is created in the process of making the print and that is what makes it a handmade original print.
