DRAWING OVALS AND ELLIPSES

Take note, first of all, of the difference between an ellipse and an oval.

The large plate explains the construction of an ellipse. It shows how to find the points where
the three pins are placed that determine the size of the looped string. Be sure and make measure-
ments accurately. Use a string that will not give, cotton thread is good for small ellipses, silk is too
elastic. A suggestion to amateur gardeners: make elliptical flower beds this way.

The caution in regard to accuracy also applies to the making of the oval.

 SUGGESTIONS FOR WATER-COLOR PAINTING
Here is a good list of colors for practical work. The
USEFUL LIST first eight are enough for every purpose; but add, you
OF WATER-COLORS if

wish, purple and orange. Moist colors in pans are best.

WHAT -TO -ASK
GOLOR^- FOR- IN -THE -SHOP There are many different kinds of red, green, blue and
YELLOW OCHRE brown paints; and as you may be puzzled and not know
what to get, the names of the best hues of these particular
GAMBOGE colors are also given. The most useful paints in this list

LIGHT RED are yellow ochre, light red, Vandyke brown and Payne's
gray. Learn to work with them, use them often and see
*] CRIMSON LAKE the beautiful effects they produce. Delicate tints are made
VANDYKE BROWN with thin washes of yellow ochre and light red. Vandyke
NEW BLUE OR brown makes a variety of pleasing tints.
ULTRAMARINE:
HOOKER'S GREEN NoJ Use the bright colors sparingly.

PAYNE'S OR AY You do not need a black paint. Payne's gray with

either brown, blue, crimson or green gives rich dark tones.

Payne's gray is also useful in shadows and shading other

MAUVE colors. For the different kinds of greens, mix yellow ochre,
ORANGE- blue or brown with Hooker's green. Use thin washes of
VERMILION light red and blue for the gray of distances and clouds.

U really a remarkable book in that fixes the object in memory and d
vhich fine i* made a good reason for ops naturally a physical skill and a ml
riS form. The youngest child may grasp knowledge of proportion and form.
the magic progress of this way of working Foreshortening and perspective, I
nd he will draw the picture naturally and bugbears to young artists, are overcomi
nrelL the simplest progressive examples.
INSTRUCTIONS are very brief, for the REMEMBERING THE KEY LINE oj
key linet of each object tell their own story the way to the completed object T
uid the child is entranced by the result* are hundreds of pictures to draw and
toon gained. There is no stupid tracing in those most fascinating to the child, wl
this book, for tracing accomplishes at most thrilled by the "magic" that makes dra
>nly a little muscular control easy and delightfully interesting.
The book provides a step-by-step system 'Just remember the KEY LINE, that't

AN IDEAL GIFT FOR CHILDREN
