Instructions.—Indigo and Indian red for the neutral teint shades, as in the preceding 
drawings ; a light wash of gamboge over the Jasmine when quite finished with the teint. For the yellow 
petals of the Alstreemeria gamboge is used ; for the bright scarlet ones, a wash of Indian yellow is first 
put over, and another of carmine with a few drops of hartshorn ; they are then shaded with carmine 
and Indian yellow, alternately ; a few touches of saturnine red to finish them. The anthera raised with 
constant white, and finished with burnt umber and lamp black. The leaves, stems, and calyces are 
done with gamboge and prussian blue, shaded with Indian yellow and blue, as before directed.
