ORANGES (Supplement) 
M. M. Mason. 
IN painting the orange study the best result is ob- 
tained by first sketching the study carefully, and 
beginning to paint on the background; laying it in with 
Black, Black Green, Yellow Brown, Shading Green, French 
Grey and Dark Green. For the leaves use the same colors 
used in- the background, with the addition of Yellow Green 
in the light ones. The stems are painted with Grey and 
Black. 
The oranges are then painted in with Yellow Brown. 
and a little Albert Yellow in the Hght of the principal ones 
A good medium should keep the whole painting open 
until it is all laid in, when it is all softened and blended with 
a pad. Dust the entire panel w4th the exception of the 
brighter light m the oranges with dark Yellow Brown and 
fire. Retouch with the same colors given for the first 
painting, using simple flat washes to obtain the desired 
depth of color, and possibly another dusting of Dark Yel- 
low Brown may be advisable, to make it glow with orange 
color. Strengthen and accent in the third painting with 
the dark greens and black.
