MISTLETOE PLATE- JEANNE M, STEWART 
THE same may be said of the French mistletoe as of the 
holly, keep the berries very large and full. 
After sketching the design in India ink lay in the back- 
ground in Ivory Yellow, Turquoise Green, Pompadour, 
Grey, Shading Green and Brown Green . After "padding" 
carefully wipe out the design and paint in while back- 
ground is still wet that all hard lines may be avoided. 
Very delicate shadows should be used in the berries 
made with Stewart's Grey and Lemon Yellow. The berry 
is modeled by picking out the lights with sharp pointed 
brush. A sHght touch of Chestnut Brown forms the blos- 
som ends. Yellow greens prevail in the leaves, and are 
obtained by mixing Lemon Yellow or Yellow Brown with 
the various greens. 
Retouch the background in the second fire throwing 
parts of the design in shadow. In white berries of any kind 
care should be taken to keep the lights clear and shadows 
not too strong but soft in tone.
