The Art of drawing, and painting in water-colours. Whereby a stranger to those arts may be immediately render'd capable of delineating any view or prospect with the utmost exactness; of colouring any print or drawing in the most beautiful manner; and of taking off medals instantly, by various ways, never before made publick: intermix'd with several curious receipts for the use of painters, statuaries, founders, &c. with instructions for making transparent colours of every sort; partly from some curious personages in Holland, France and Italy; but chiefly from a manuscript of the Great Mr. Boyle; particularly a receipt of that gentleman's, for making a blue colour equal to ultramarine.
