KERAMIC STUDIO 
PHLOX (Page 221) 
Treatment, by Jessie M. Bard 
CAREFULLY sketch design in, then paint in the dark 
leaves back of flowers with Yellow Green, Shading Green 
and Black. Where the leaves come out in the light use less of 
Black and Shading Green; a little Apple Green with Yellow 
Green in the lightest leaves. The most delicate flowers are 
White leaving the white of china for lights and shading blos- 
soms with a little Apple Green and Violet in the darkest shadows. 
In flowers use a little Copenhagen Blue and Violet; the centers 
have a touch of Yellow and Blood Red. The bunch on right 
hand side of study is a deep Rose Pink. Paint blossoms with 
Blood Red very thin, so it is a delicate Rose color shade with 
a very little Violet added to the Blood Red. The centers are 
just the Blood Red. Background is Yellow, a little Violet 
and Apple Green around flowers and in deepest places use a 
little Grey for Flesh. 
Second Firing — Use same coloring used in flrst flre. The 
pink bunch is washed with a thin wash of Rose. Just strengthen 
the shadow side of flowers.
