Q: Think about what you are planning to paint. Mix colors in your palette to create the colors that you will need for your design. Always clean your brush by swirling it in the water before you change colors to avoid contamination. You can mix paint by squeezing two colors into the same compartment of your palette and mixing with a brush. You can also mix colors by scooping up some paint on the brush, depositing it in a clean compartment of your palette, then cleaning your brush and dipping it into another color. Transfer the other color into the compartment and mix the colors together with the brush. You should able to make all the colors you need just by using red, blue, yellow and white. If you have considerably watered down some of your gouache colors, add a few drops of Gum Arabic to the paint and mix with a brush. Gum Arabic binds the gouache color to the paper so that the pigment doesn't wipe away after the water has evaporated. Many artists find that it is useful to lightly sketch their design onto the surface that they are going to paint on. This can allow you to fully flesh out your idea before you use paint to set it in stone. Use a graphite pencil to lightly draw what you are going to paint. Before you add paint to your design, first use a white pastel to color any areas on your design that you want to remain white. Because oils naturally deflect water, your water-based gouache will not adhere to any areas of paper colored with white oil pastel. Coloring with white oil pastel is not the only way to have white in your design. You can also use white gouache paint to add areas of white. However, if you are painting a very light and delicate design, you may not want to add a heavy layer of white paint to your painting. This is why some prefer to use white oil pastel instead of white gouache. If you do not plan on having white in your painting, you can skip this step. Gouache paint is best used in thin layers. Paint the basic colors of your design, filling in the drawing that you made earlier. Do not use the gouache color straight from the tube; instead, water it down with several drops of water in the palette so the paint glides on the page. For instance, if you are painting a tree, fill trunk with brown and the leaves with green. Some artists only choose to use one or two watered-down layers in their work to create a sheer, watercolor-like effect. Others prefer to use many layers to add detail and dimensions to their designs. Although gouache can be built up, be careful not to apply it too thickly, as gouache has the tendency to crack when it is laid on very thick.
A: Mix your colors. Add Gum Arabic to diluted paints. Lightly draw your design. Color white areas with white oil pastel. Lay down a few base colors.

Article: For this recipe, you need to preheat the oven at 350 degrees. Pull out a flat baking sheet and spray with nonstick spray. Set the pan aside. Take the stale bread and crumble it in a medium bowl. Stir in the flour, cayenne pepper, and salt. Pour in the milk. It should start to feel like dough. Mix in the cheese. Knead the dough until the cheese is well mixed in. Since ingredients were rationed in the war, the amount of fresh flour is minimal. The use of stale bread allowed every resource to be used for something. If the mixture is too dry, add in a little milk at a time to thin it out. Roll the dough until it is about a 14 inch (0.6cm) thick. Cut the dough into strips that are 6 inches (15.2cm) long and a 1/2 inch wide. You may need to dust your work surface with flour so the dough doesn't stick to it. Place the straws in the oven. Cook for 20 minutes. Remove them from the oven and let them cool before serving.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Preheat the oven. Make the dough. Make the straws. Cook the straws.

Problem: Article: Instead of breathing in and out through your nostrils, this yogic practice involves breathing in through a "tube," made by rolling your tongue. If you cannot roll your tongue into a perfect tube, try to shape your tongue into as much of a cylinder as possible. Form a tube (or as much of a cylindrical shape as possible) with your tongue. Push the tip of your "tongue tube" out just past your lips. If you cannot roll your tongue on your own, you may need to use your hands to "shape" the tongue. Draw a slow, deep inhalation through your rolled-up tongue. Try to keep your lips tightly wrapped around your tongue to force all of the air through the "tube" you've formed with your tongue. As you inhale, tilt your head down and hold your chin against your chest. Feel the breath enter your lungs and hold the breath for approximately five seconds. Push the breath out of your nostrils in a slow, controlled exhalation. Try to exhale as you did during the Ujjayi pranayama. Focus on your chest and contract the vocal cords as the breath leaves your body through the nose. Do not practice the Shitali pranayama unless you are physically warm. Some yogis believe that the Shitali pranayama cools the body, which could be dangerous if you are cold or if you practice during the winter.
Summary: Roll your tongue. Inhale through the tube. Exhale through the nostrils.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Make the lines parallel. That is the cone done.

SUMMARY: Draw a v shape with a curved bend. Draw a line on the top that is slightly longer than the top of the v. Draw a line above it that is slightly longer than the one underneath. Connect the two lines at the ends. Draw a the scoop of ice cream on top. Add an optional cuboid to be a 99 flake! Then color in!
