Today was the day of three color prints. So after I set out and mixed up my inks again, I began inking all three plates in their specified colors. When it came time to print, the yellow plate was run through the press first, then the red plate, and finally the blue plate. I made three prints in the same manner as the one and two color prints. Then for the next three, I rolled the ink onto the plate, creating a very distinctly different print.
