PUNCH BOWL IN GRAPES— JEANNE M. STEWART 
1i\ this design the purple, red and white grapes are combined. 
The red bunch in central cluster is painted in Pompadour, 
Rubj^ Purple, Yellow Brown and Banding Blue. A mixture of 
Pompadour, Ruby Purple, Banding Blue and a little Bruns- 
wick Black is used in grapes in deepest shadow and in the ver3^ 
darkest tones in others. In the second painting the Banding 
Blue and Black should be omitted. 
The bunch under the leaves to the left of central grouj) 
should be laid in in a mixture of Banding Blue, Ruby Purple 
and Brunswick Black; a very thin wash of Banding Blue being 
drawn over the lightest tones to represent the "bloom." In 
painting grapes it is extreiiiely important to keep them clear 
and transparent wdth decided light and shade. Lemon Yellow, 
Yellow Green, Brown Green, Pompadour and Shading Green 
arc used in the white bunch to the extreme left; over these 
colors delicate grey shadows are thrown in second or third firings. 
The visual greens may be used in the leaves with exception 
of the central prominent leaf which should be painted in the 
yellow and brown tones. While the lightest wash of Yellow- 
Brown is still open, the darker tones of Pompadour and 
Chestnut Brown maj^ be worked in, giving a soft but crinkled 
effect to the leaf. Brown green is also used in shading and a 
bright touch of Egg Yellow and Yellow Red is effectual. The 
background is grey in general effect, in which Stewart's Grey is 
used, shading to Grey and Shading Green. Or, the greens alone 
may be used, shading from Ivory YelloAV to Yellow Green and 
Shading Green, with Shading Green and Brown Green at the 
base which should be very dark, and dusted in last painting.
