background with Blue Violet which will give them the per- 
spective. 
With the pointed shader dig out the lights in the 
flowers and leaves. There is a little Yellow and Yellow 
Green in the centre of the double violets. 
The panel is now ready for the stem. Look out not to 
get them too straight as they are very limber and graceful. 
The second and last fire are a repetition of the first 
painting excepting the details of the flowers and leaves 
which have to be outlined to give them a crisp appearance

The treatment for the single violet is the same as 
the double violet excepting the California violet from 
which this drawing is made, the color of which is not a light 
bluish color but is Blue Violet mixed with a little Crimson 
Purple and shaded with Deep Violet.

PAINT the flowers very simply with a grey green made 
by mixing Moss Green with Copenhagen Blue and 
Moss Green with Royal Purple and modeling the petals 
with these colors adding a little Albert Yellow and Pearl 
Grey in places. Use Rose for the pink flowers with a touch 
of Ruby to give strength. Where the flowers have turned 
brown in the older blossoms use Yellow Brown, also Blood 
Red and Banding Blue mixed to give character to the flower. 
The foliage and background must be painted with 
Royal Purple mixed with the greens for greying them. In 
the second painting the wash-over or "glaze" maybe done 
with pure greens. Albert Yellow, Blue Green, Apple Green, 
Moss Green, Brown Green, Shading Green and Black are the 
colors used for the stems and leaves, with a wash of Blood 
Red over some of the stems where necessarv.
