New Adventures in Ink

So I have been practicing using more than one color at a time while rolling the ink on my plate.  It makes some pretty cool looking results,  This Sunflower is a bit subtle. I used red with just a touch of yellow.

This kingfisher is not subtle at all.  I used a mix of blue, turquoise, and yellow. 

This was just a little golden scarab.  I'm planning on cutting the page to size and matting it with a dark brown.  should look pretty cool. Who knew that old dictionary paper was good for printmaking?
