Quick Mockingbird/Chickadee Lino Update

Northern Mockinbird with Carolina Chickadee. Linocut Proof State by Ken Januski.

I'm always a bit torn about putting up a print in such a raw state as the Mockingbird lino from yesterday. Perhaps I shouldn't. On the other hand perhaps someone is interested in seeing how my prints develop. In any case I myself wasn't too happy with it. So when 3-4 hours work today resulted in the proof above I decided to show it.

As usual this proof is with cheap ink on cheap paper. I tend to start that way. As I get closer to finishing I'll switch to good ink and good paper.
