colors are to be recommended ; yellow brown, chestnut brown, brown M, brown No 4, van dyke brown and black brown. Yellow ochre and sepia are also useful.
Emerald stone green, moss green j, olive green, and dark green No. 7 may be used with advantage. Shading green is another fine color. Carnation No. 1 and capucine red are two valuable additional reds. Ivory yellow, Albert's yellow, and orange yellow each has its place ; and pearl gray, warm gray, neutral gray, and gold gray are all most indispensable. Sky blue is important for flesh, and deep blue for any dark rich effects unattainable with Deep blue green . Either deep purple or purple no. 2 will be found in many cases a good substitute for ruby purple, which is much more expensive color.
It is customary to have one black. Either Brunswick black or ivory black will do. White enamel is used for high lights in relief and decorative scrolls ; permanent yellow, another relief color, is used to represent the stamens in flowers, such as are seen in wild roses, apple and cherry blossoms, etc. The list may close with relief past for gold.while it is by no means necessary to possess all of these colors, it is a selection found most useful after many years' experience.
1. since this is an old book and the colors are not available now -when done printing I will try to photo the colors plates so one can compare with today's colors.
