A piece of pith transfixed by the pin is shaved with a sharp knife until its surface is flush with that of the wooden gauge. When the poison is to be applied to the darts, it is worked into a thinner paste on a palette with a spatula. A circular groove is cut round the shaft of the dart about two inches from its tip, and the part so marked off is rolled in the paste and then dried before a fire.
Have I done anything you didn't like?" demanded Mary Allen, as she extricated her thumb from the hole of a palette on which oil paints proved that she had forsaken for the moment her love of water colors. "Why why I don't understand!" exclaimed Jimmy, helplessly. "Don't understand? I thought you promised to write?"
You can count upon me," she answered, gazing into his eyes. He did not move. The one hand held his palette, the other hung free by his side. All at once she took it in hers, still looking up into his eyes. "I am very fond of you," she said earnestly. "You can count upon me as long as we two live." "God bless you," he said, more quietly than he had spoken yet, and his hand pressed hers a little.
The artist holds in her left hand a palette, which is the earliest notice of the use of that implement with which antiquarians are acquainted. The fashion of painting figures cut in wood was once much practised, and we see here the representation of a female artist of very ancient date.
The gospel has, if I might so say, on its palette a far greater range of pigments than any other system. Its blacks are blacker; its whites are whiter; its golds are more lustrous than those of other painters of human nature as it is and as it may become. It is a mark of its divine origin that it unfalteringly looks facts in the face, and will not say smooth things about men as they are.
Fentolin was sitting before the open window, an easel in front of him, a palette in his left hand, painting with deft, swift touches. "Ah!" he exclaimed, without looking around, "it is my friend the doctor, my friend Sarson, M.D. of London, L.R.C.P. and all the rest of it. He brings with him the odour of the sick room. For a moment or two, just for a moment, dear friend, do not disturb me.
I couldn't tell red from green on my palette, so no wonder the fields and everything else looked all the same colour. And yet what provokes one is the feeling that an artist would have made a sketch of it somehow. The view is really beautiful." "And that is really beautiful," said Eleanor, pointing to the birch group and its background. "And what a mess I have made of it!
With what amazing skill has this great painter made use of all the gloomy tones of music, of all that is saddest on the musical palette! What creepy darkness! what a mist! Is not your very spirit in mourning? Are you not convinced of the reality of the blackness that lies over the land? Do you not feel that Nature is wrapped in the deepest shades?
He often called to her when he had been more than usually successful; but she never made him any answer, nor took the least notice of his entreaties that he might see her again. "So a long time several years passed away. He was grown up to be a man, and he had never broken the charm; he still worked every day with his magic palette. "No one in these parts cared at all for his pictures.
King Philip, pondering over complicated political combinations, would be a fascinating historical painting, but no likeness...." "Certainly not," said the king in a low voice; "the portrait must reveal the inmost spirit; mine must show how warmly Philip loves art and his artists. Take the palette, I beg.
