BUTTERCUPS— A. A. ROBINEAU 
THIS bright and highly enterprising little flower is a 
bright silvery pink on the right side with darker 
thread like lines running toward the center and a much 
lighter tone on the underside. The buds therefore are a 
pale pink with light green calyx. Leaves are a soft yellow- 
ish green. 
For the flowers use Peach Blossom and Ashes of Roses 
to shade, with a few deeper touches of Rose or American 
Beauty in second fire. 
The leaves are quite light except in shadow. Moss 
Green, Brown Green and Dark Green may be used with 
pale green stems. 
Use a warm greyish undertone for background, Ivory 
Yellow in lightest parts, Ashes of Roses and Air Blue to 
grey it, with Persian Green and Dark Green in darkest 
places. 
TREATMENT FOR TRUMPET FLOWER 
Mariam L. Candler 
* I A HE Trumpet Flower is one of our old fashioned 
* garden vines and is very decorative. The flower 
whose name is descriptive of its formation is very gorgeous 
in its tone of coloring. 
For the first firing, wash in the trumpet part of the 
flower with Albert's Yellow, shading with Blood Red, 
or Deep Red Brown. The cup shape requires careful 
modeling with reddish yellow tones. Put a touch of 
Yellow Green in the center for the stamens. The calex 
and stem are laid in with Moss Green shaded with Brown 
Green. The clusters of buds are kept in the soft grey 
green tones^ with a touch of Yellow Brown for the high 
lights. For the leaves, use Yellow Green, Grey Green 
and Shading Green. 
If the study is used on a vase the background may 
be a soft dark green gradually shading into a pale yellow 
(Chinese Yellow) at the top, or the tones of Dark Brown 
and Red may be substituted for the dark green. 
For the second firing use the same colors accenting 
where necessary; when nearly dry, powder for the strong 
effects. Then glaze with Ivory Glaze over the brown 
tones or Green Glaze over the dark green effects.
