Excerpts:

There are many things of which the beginner in china painting should be reminded. It is most essential that he has clean tools and well mixed colors before attempting any work. To be sure poorly ground colors are more quickly and more easily prepared, but nothing but the very poorest results can be obtained from such haste.

After placing a small quantity of powder color on a clean slab and enough mixing medium to make a thick paste, blend the two together with a small palette knife, working with a rotary motion. See well to it that no particles are left. When blending, keep the palette knife as flat as possible, as there is danger of breaking it if bent too much. Mix well until the color is a smooth paste. It will be found well to put a small amount of the mixing medium in a small dish and use from that, rather than pouring it from bottle.
