KERAMIC STUDIO 
27 
made the more formal decorations a pleasure and of easy 
accomplishment. Her method of eliminating the drudgery 
of tracing and of India ink and of putting the design free 
hand and at once into ceramic color is eagerly welcomed. 
Mrs. Vance Phillips has shown exceptional interest in 
the theory and application of color harmonies. By charts 
this fascinating subject becomes an open book, and the 
student is enabled to express original color thoughts based on 
principles that all may learn. This season's special feature 
will be the study of color harmonies suitable to porcelain. 
These borders are the detail drawing for saucer and 
lid of the marmelaide jar below. Treatment same as jar. 
For plate borders, treatment as follows: Outline design with 
black, using pen for fine even line. Float in background 
with blue enamel, using Banding Blue for foundation, 
toning with a little Ruby and Black and adding 1-6 Tur- 
quoise Glaze and two drops lavender oil; thin with turpen- 
tine and float on with pointed shader leaving white line 
around design, fire, then paint in bands and leaves with 
a pretty Yellow Green Lustre and the flowers with Orange. 
Fire. Retouch lustres using Yellow over Orange in last fire. 
MARMALADE JAR— MRS. RAY E. MOTZ 
WOULD suggest two treatments — Lustre: flowers in 
Orange and Yellow lustre. Leaves Light Green, black 
outline. Gold background; or dust the design with L. Vance 
Phillip's Chinese Blue leaving ground white. This is a soft 
grey blue, makes a very pretty treatment with neither out- 
line or background painted.
