Music dealers occasionally are requested by band
leaders to paint a design on the head of a bass drum
purchased with a band outfit. But this is no ordi-
nary job of painting to be undertaken without thought
by the local artist. It is a special bit of work requir-
ing exact procedure. The "Leedy Drum Topics" tells
the proper way:
"Bass drums are indeed made more attractive for
the dance or stage drummer when artistic paintings
are put upon one of the heads. There is consider-
able difficulty in doing this work, for if lights are
used inside the drum and the design is painted on the
head in the same manner as an artist paints a picture,
the brush marks will show when the lights are behind
same; and if enough paint is employed so that brush
marks do not show, the light throws this spot up as
a meaningless object, because the light does not
come through. Therefore, even though the job looks
very nice when the lights are off, it looks very dis-
torted when the lights are on.
''The way to overcome this condition is to use the
stipple method of painting, which is done by cutting
the brush off straight or 'bobbing' it. Then, instead
of drawing or stroking the brush, it is used in the
stipple or daub fashion. When the proper kind of
paint is used, this makes a painting that is transparent
and without brush marks, which is just as pleasing to
the eye with or without the lights."
