Table of Contents

Asphaltum (bitumen).—A transparent mineral pitch used to some extent as a stain when thinned with benzine, and for a glazing color with other colors added to it.

Brown Ochre.—Similar to yellow ochre but having a brown color. It is a native earth pigment.

Caledonian Brown.—Not a color pigment but made by mixing burnt sienna and Vandyke brown. A good drying and permanent color.

Mars Brown.—See mars red and mars yellow for same description except as to color.

Sepia.—Made of coloring matter from the cuttle fish. Not permanent to light. Sepia color is commonly mixed from other colors which are permanent.

Vandyke Brown.—See Chapter II.

Bone Brown.—Made from charred bone dust. A fugitive color of no value for permanent decoration. Ivory black toned with raw umber will reproduce the color of this pigment and give you a permanent, stable color.

Brown Madder.—Made from the natural madder root the same as genuine madder lake, but of a brownish hue. Fairly permanent in color, but in time fades to a yellow hue.

Brown Pink.—A warm brown lake color made from quercitron bark. It is a fugitive color of little value for permanent decoration.
