Instructions.—For the corollas, a very light shade of neutral teint is first used ; the back 
shadows are put in with the same colour, not quite so much diluted ; carmine is then used, first as a 
wash, then shaded with the same; cobalt very light for the blue teint. For the spots on the centre 
petal, gall-stone is used and constant white, finished with carmine and prussian blue for the anthera. 
The leaves must be shaded with neutral teint, and a wash put over the darkest, leaving the 
principal veins. The green for the ground colour is a mixture of gamboge, prussian blue, and 
carmine ; Indian yellow and prussian blue for the shading, adding a little neutral teint and gum 
for the darkest touches.
