scheme— and several will be given— but if the student 
wishes to get the most benefit possible from this problem 
she will make her own color treatments. Japanese rice 
paper is an excellent thing for this purpose and in color 
it is very much like Satsuma and Belleek ware. One can 
lay the Japanese paper over the black and white drawing 
and proceed to paint in the colors with water colors or tem- 
pera paints. The following are a number of color schemes, 
some of which could be worked out on paper this way. Other 
arrangements may be planned to meet individual prefer- 
ences for certain colors. 
Color Scheme No. I. 
Dark Blue (Canton, Nanking, Old Chinese or Royal) — 
Color Scheme No. V. 
The above schemes are all for enamel on a soft glaze 
ware. This is for lustres on either a hard or some soft 
glazes. 
Copper Lustre (Gold Lustre may be used instead) — For 
all the dark in the design as in Fig. 7. . 
- Light Green Lustre— For the light spots in the feathers 
of the tail. 
Yellow Brown Lustre — For the three feathers on the body 
of the peacock, the ornament on its head and the flowers. 
If this is carried out on a white china it is advisable to 
first give the whole piece an ivory color. 
For all the dark in the design as it appears in Fig. 7. 
Emerald Green. (Any bright cool green) — For the light 
spots in the feathers in the tail, on the head, around the 
dots in the conventional peacock feather and for the lining 
of the bowl. 
Dull orange (Golden yellow) — For the three feathers on 
the body of the peacock and in the flowers below. 
Color Scheme No. II. 
The same as the above with the additional use of gold in 
the background of the panel or in the background of all 
other than the panel. Also between the two narrow lines 
of the inside border. 
Color Scheme No. III. 
Black — In all the dark parts of the design as in Fig. 7. 
Vermillion. In all the light spots throughout the design 
and in one of the narrow inside border lines. 
Golden Yellow — In the panel background. 
Dull Green — For the leaves and flower stems. 
Color Scheme No. IV. 
Light Gray Green (one might try a Gray No. 2) — For 
all the dark parts of the desigii as in Fig. 7 except the pea- 
cock. 
Lavender Blue (Light Purple) — For the peacock motif. 
Light Emerald Green— For all the light spots in the 
feathers of the tail, on the breast, on the head and for a 
lining in the bowl.
