Chamois.

—A dull yellow made by mixing four parts of white, five of yellow ochre and one of green.

Chamoline.

—Mix together five parts of white lead, three parts of raw sienna and one part of lemon yellow.

Citrine.

—Although this is a tertiary colour, and theoretically can be made from green and orange, opinions as to the exact shade somewhat differs. It may be made by mixing four parts of medium chrome yellow and one part of raw umber; or five parts of lemon chrome yellow and two parts of raw umber.

Citron.

—To produce this colour use Venetian red as a base and add one part of Prussian blue, two of chrome yellow and two of white.

Colonial Yellow.

—Medium chrome yellow mixed with white lead and a little dark orange chrome yellow gives this tint.
