 MAY BLACKBOARD CALENDAR

By JOHN T LEMOS 

WILD ROSE IS THE STATE FLOWER OF IOWA, NORTH DAKOTA, GEORGIA AND NEW YORK 

By JOHN THE wild rose makes an attractive calendar. In planning the calendar, first block in the location of the various blossoms. This is done, connect them with a light line, indicating the stems. Finally add the leaf shapes. 
It is best to do this lightly, so that any needed corrections may be easily made. Next proceed, to color the flowers.

Make the petals a light pink in the highlights, and a deep rose pink in the darker parts. The stamens are deep yellow, the leaves are medium green, and the stems a brownish green. The outlining border panel may be done in a light yellow-green.
