Ink, by means of foap, and transferring It to a frefh
ground.
A drawing in water colours may be calqued by paffing
over the outlines with a good black-lead pencil, then
warming the plate on which the ground is laid, fo as gently
to melt the ground; and laying the drawing on it, pafs
them through a prefs properly adjufted. This method
fucceeds very well for landfcapes.
CAMPEACHY Wood, is nearly related to Bra-
zil, and by no means fuperior for its utility in the arts.
CARMINE, is a bright, deep, rich, crimfon colour,
bordering fomewhat on purple, ufed conftantly in water-
colours, but very rarely in oil; becaufe it will not mix
kindly in oil, as well as becaufe of its high price. It is
a colour which fpends well. Carmine is the moft va-
luable product of the cochineal mejlique, it is a fecula, or
fcdiment of water wherein is fteeped cochineal, &c.
To rain water wherein thirty-fix grains of chouan
have been boiled three times, and {trained, are added five
drams of cochineal, and this likewife is boiled three times;
then add eighteen grains of Achiotte, or roucou, (if
thought proper) and the fame quantity of rock alum, this
liquor is boiled once, then filtered through a linen
cloth, and fuffered to ftand till it has depofited its fedi-
ment; which when dried, is the carmine.
The additional ingredients are perhaps better omitted
(and we believe at prefent generally are omitted) fince
carmine is nothing more than the colouring particles of
cochineal diffolved in an alkaline lixivium, and preci-
pitated by allum.
Some give the following procefs to obtain carmine
