This week on press

This week I printed several lovely birds, including this one, called the Choiseul Crested Pigeon. Here he is:

The first run was inked by hand, because I didn’t want that orange color on the entire bird.

Then I did a pale blue run on top.

Then a sort of blue-gray on top of that to add some depth and detail. Then the black run on top to define everything.

And there he is.
