Devon and Bird - Monotype - in progress - Part VI

Hello hello,

I printed another layer last night (red tone) and two more layers of blue this morning. I think that I only need one more warm layer and then it's finished :).


The ink transfered onto the offset blanket right before it's being printed.

with this layer I think the shadows and blues are all established. I believe I should be finished after printing one more warm color. On this print I have worked completely out of order from the way I usually work. My usual approach is to work lightest and warmest color to coolest and darkest color. But I to achieve the grays I had to switch it up a lot which is kind of refreshing!
