DESIGN FOR PLATE IN CHERRIES— JEANNE M. STEWART 
JT is important in painting cherries to keep them bright, crisp 
and transparent. Dresden Yellow, Red and Pompadour 23 
will make the brightest tone, shaded to pompadour with 
Stewart's Pompadour and a little Ruby Purple in darkest 
cherries in shadow. Lemon Yellow is used in lightest tones 
also a little Yellow Green in those cherries not ripe. 
The usual greens are used in the leaves with Yellow Brown, 
Chestnut Brown and Pompadour where an old and withered 
effect is desii-ed. The background may be kept in soft, greys 
or greens, keeping it very dark at one side or under prominent 
portion of design. 
The lightest side should be padded off into a delicate ivory 
yellow so none of the white china is left. 
A few shadows thrown in in last fire with a grey made of 
S. Pompadour and Banding Blue, padding some of the edges 
into the background, gives a pretty finish.
