Philip Straub - Where Fears Roam
I love Feng Zhu, and I love Ryan Church, but Philip Straub is probably my favorite because he has a way of evoking an emotional response and mood via his color schemes. There's a very EVIL colour scheme being used here.
Blacks, dark greens, sickly yellow greens, and oranges make up the bulk of the clouds and landscape, and the majority of the image is painted with very dark values, making any lighter values reveal themselves more easily. Hellish red hues immediately draw the eye to the focal point of the tower, as they're the only bright red hues in the entire image, contrasting nicely with the darks of the somewhat-silhouetted tower. The bird on the left 3rd of the image, stands out against the dark clouds, and fits that area of the image because of the similar hues between it, and it's surroundings.
The darker red dots in the foreground subtly connect the foreground back to the tower, and because of the major value contrast between foreground and background, those spikes reveal themselves in full! That wouldn't have worked if say, the mist on the ground was too dark a value, then the spikes wouldn't have the starkness that you see here.
Straub does something interesting with the cloud colors. They have more saturation than the mist on the bottom, or in the background mountains, despite the fact that the cloud layer is probably the same distance, or even further away. This is obviously meant to designate the cloudscape as an important visual character; a fell light casting poison upon the whole scene. The sun cannot reach into this area, without becoming twisted up, and Straub shows us this through muddled hues, becoming more defined towards green as the light passes further into the eviiiil landscape.
hehe the ones not new
Btw about the marking, I think he will now write what we should look more into, and we get a mark on that aswell, how we continue our research to find out even more .

Ryan Church - Hi-tech Architecture Concept
I still love Church too! This one is one of my favorites for the variety of the colors used, and the amount of variation too.
Atmospheric perspective is in great play here, as a golden haze from the sun obscures the distant buildings on the left, and because of even more atmosphere and smoke/steam the color shifts to a more reddish haze in the background on the right.
The foreground elements are the most saturated, and the reddish orange of the right, draws the eye due to the contrast of hues. There's also a distinct difference between the city lights and the environmental light. The city lights are more neon and artificial, and help separate the constructed masses apart from the er...unconstructed ones. It also helps that the overall values of the buildings are dark, so the lights are more noticeable.
The hanging buildings, throughout the shift of colors in the sky, have relatively darker values that help bring the mass forward in space. With haze and values alone, Church establishes the relative position of the buildings in space.
Ok i figured id post my WIP for my idea to get some early imputs from some people!
My basic idea is the Chrystal that represents the dream of artists, a artifact that humans have been searching for for ages. And now that they have found it they have started excavaiting it. And the darkness of the walls and the people around it represent the dark mechanical dreams of the rest of the people..... The Chrystal will shine in a very bright colour, colouring up most of the place. While you have the colours of the lamps of the diggers going from top to bottom.
Does the idea make any sense???
So first i did a quick thumb of some sketches, then i have desided to go for a diffrent perspective, more similar to the sketch on the top right. where instead of looking from the side, you look from the top and down towards the bottom..

temple scarp.
by "Hipper"
another temple. But this struck me because of its colour use the striking ornate detail in crisp saturated colours against the misty yet dramatic grey and green background. so much of the impact of this is based on the contrast of complementary colours especially the red/green dyad. up to and in cluding the bright green frieze on the foreground building and the use of greens and reds in the frontground bush. Of course you have your decreasing saturation for aerial perspective (or atmospheric perspective as it is sometimes called)
gunderson. the idea makes sense. the sketches are a little hard to decypher. um and Crystals (not matter how you spell them) while fun to draw are kinda done to death (remind me to show you the city based around a crystal I did for a now defunct indy game. shudder. some time when we are in true-confession mode). in any case. if you are planing to use this Icon. It needs to be something unique. also. Is this based on a real dream? of yours? if so you read to many fantasy novels...) It is my interpretation of the assignment that we actually use one of our own dream images....
To see the world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wildflower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour.

I am one of those that never remembers my dreams, so i interpedate the assignment a bit diffrent .. well well will see how it goes
But yes i read a ton of fantasy novel, and i base the assignment more on a day dream kind of... How to discover something magicaly

City Building
by "Hipper"
as you can see. I hit this guy's file and never left it. I don't have vast experience with gaming which is the primary source of Digital environments. Although I do go to a lot of movies. (wry laugh) but usually I am so engrossed in the movie that I am not aware whether the scene is digital or not... Its all real to me. But I digress... (as I so often do)
The clour use in this piece is subtle and desaturated Like the Corot. whereas that is done in primarily cool colours this is almost entirely a warm pallete. The tones fade subtle from warm to cool as you get farthur way. this can be seen particularly in the shafts of sunlight although the shift is only sligth from pale yellow to pale silver. Again like the Corot a small spot of red draws the eye to the main subject.
I was going to put my sketch here but I couldn't make it share the same post...
To see the world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wildflower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour.
Sketch book
I guess if we are sharing WIPS. I'll post this. I know the perspective is wonky. It is based on a dream. and the dark industrial elevator, and the bright classical scene represent the juxtaposition of the bright and the dark ways of dreaming. (I plan to drop the building and elevator into total grey scale.)
the stairs are the main problem.
I really need to stop thinking of environments as a stage set. But thats where I use them

Sketch book
form: "You ask him what scene he would like you to paint - and he asks you to paint something from your own dreams. All he asks is that the treatment of colour is the top priority."
ok, people, i'm sorry if i'm wrong i don't think we have to portray a juxtaposition of the B/W and colour dreaming BUT paint something from our own dreams. you don't even have to mention the black and white dreaming stuff... it's only about a very nice dramatic colour dreamscape... i THINK that's what form meant with all that art director mambo jumbo
meaning unless you do dream about the differences between B/W and colour dreams, wich is unprobable you're not going to paint about that... but something original, dreamy, and with a special care in colour....
am i wrong?
I am pretty sure we need to make a colorful one, that's what this week is about, anything you can imagine is kind of a dream, don't try to dream it tonight when you are sleeping, also, we all have had colorful dreams that we can recall, but just close your eyes and focus on it, it'll come to you.
Gundersen, what are the colors that the crystal & the lamps will emit, it'll be very dark in there and then you will have only the ground/walls color, the light color themselves and the light colors mixed, maybe you want to add other colored elements or different crystal colors.
robmorfin: The crystal will shien strongly
AND you dont have to show the contrast between B&W and Colour, Form says in an reply on page one "COLOURFULL IMAGE"
Chaosrock You realy need to check the perspective of your painting, its very off atm.. But keep working!

JESUS CHIRST PEOPLE you dont have to show B/W stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the goddamn art director is just GIVING YOU BACKGROUND on the project he is directing when he says "I want to emphasize the difference, ETC", AFTERWRADS you ask him what does he want YOU to paint and he SAYS "PAINT SOMETHING FROM YOUR DREAMS - MAKE COLOUR TREATMENT A PRIORITY"
does that means you have to SHOW the difference between B/W and COLOUR dreams in your picture???? NO it DOES NOT
god, im going mad... sry
"Ryan, that's not a desaturated color."
ok, here's stage 1 of my study tasks
Mariano Fortuny Marsal Fantasy about Faust
in this painting by Fortuny, colour is playing a very important role. it's reinforcing the division between reality and fantasy already set in the picture's theme.
let's look at the picture in black and white:
everything gets flattened, and one may even be a bit confused about what's going on.
however, in the original colour version, everything seems to work out well. we can easily understand the idea. let's see why.
i'd divide the picture in three basic zones. or maybe in zone A, and zone B - made up of part 1 ,2 and 3:
if we trace a diagonal from top left right corner to bottom left corner we can get the division im speaking about.
zone A being to the bottom right part, is made up of very dark values and mostly desaturated hues, browns, reds, there is some more saturated yellow in that framing, but packed together, the whole zone gives a very 'heavy' and real impression. warm values dominate the zone.
as we cross this diagonal, and by use of greens and blues, still mixed with warms to produce harmony along this tremendous leap, we enter into zone B. zone B contains 3 important things worth noticing.
if we look at the left bottom corner of the picture, we'll find this 'dead zone' or gray zone (part 3) mixing up with the darks from zone A. this whole part is kept gray to avoid losing attention from the eye of the viewer (this part isn't but a desaturated extension of the next part we'll discuss).
moving up and sideways, there's this bird connecting the gray zone with the most important part of the picture, we can call it part 1. ruled by mid values, it has the strongest both in value and colour contrast/complement. the saturated reds of the figure smashed against that green-blueish background. you just want to look at it, and take small breaks to discover the rest of the picture, returning as much as possible to breath fresh air inside this zone.
to the left, and losing detail and contrast, we have part 2 of this zone. higher in value, but lacking the contrast to fight part 1. in the figure, the red-against-bluegreen thing is revisited, but at a way lower volume than in part 1. around the figure there is some dancing of cold and warm, generating a little something for the eye to chew at.
N.C. Wyeth The giant
in this illustration, by Wyeth, colour is helping again divide natural from supernatural.
even though the picture makes some sense in black and white,
colour is a way to strengthen what the artist (may have) wanted to portray.
we can divide this into zone A and zone B.
zone A being the beach, waves and the kids, is but a fraction of the size of zone B, being the giant and the clouds. however the constrast and treatment of colour is doing the trick to make zone A pop out.
zone A is ruled by warm, mostly saturated hues, containing a lot of local colour and clarity. whilst zone B features mostly cold, desaturated values, and the figure is a clear victim of atmospherical effects. hues on this zone tend to Bgrey out and mix up with pinkB as they get closer to zone A, in order to soften out the transition from one zone to the other (mix with pink) and to further empower the elements of zone A (for greys cant put a fight against those saturated primaries)
here's this, simplified:
if we keep analyzing this picture in a more subjective manner, we could say that subscounsciously, elements containing more local colour and constrast may seem more real than elements built off greys, atmosphere colours, and low constrast. so, this could had been another reason for the artist to make such decisions.
Justin Sweet "lucynewhorse" (?)
in this rather speedy painting by sweet, a picture that could had been eerie and desolated in B/W,
transforms, through the use of hues and palette, into a very warm and comfortable place to look/be at.
the whole picture is built off warm tones, reds, umbers, some pink, all kind of yellows and sienas, touching the colds only in the greenish lightblue of the sky and the yellow greens of some trees, wich actually look a lot more like shades of siena.
colour is having different uses.
one is to breathe life into the idea of a peacefull, warm-looking natural place.
but, if we look again at the B/W version, and compare to the colour one, we can see how colour is the tool used to turn those masses of value into different bushes and trees.
last, we can say that the lower part of the painting is treated in pretty much desaturated colour, to generate interest on the upper part. and the figure is given some of the brightest colours and values.
Craig Mullins 'boarding' (?)
this painting by mullins is a colourfest. we could broadly say that there is a big mass of cold tones to the left and another mass of warms to the right. however, in the middle of these, and all across the picture, there is a lot of mixture and we can find the most peculiar colour situations. the goal of this is to enliven the picture as much as possible. no matter where we look at, we always find this cold/warm, saturated/desaturated, bright/dark articulations saving the picture from dullness. if we look at this mosaic, we can see that it's the greys really making the picture, it's also easier to see what i see about left and right:
i personally feel i could stare at this piece for a long time before getting tired of it. that's because of the colour treatment. there's so much to look at besides the objective theme of the picture. and even if you tear apart the 'literal' out of it, colour makes it through:
also, if you know Mucha, you may agree with me this is a very "The Slav Epic" colour palette.

"Ryan, that's not a desaturated color."
ok, first the traditionail paintings, I actually picked 3 instead of 2. The first 2 are both Dutch painters, and the other one is a French impressionist. I picked a third one since the third one uses his color quite differently then the first 2.
Artist: Jan van Goyen (1596-1656)
Title: Gezicht op Dordrecht (view of Dordrecht)
The first one I picked was a dutch painter during the golden age (17th century). He painted a lot of dutch landscapes during his live. I picked this one, both because I think it is a brilliant painting, and also because it is the city where I am born.
The colors in this painting contain a lot of browns, with here and there a well hidden blue (For example the sky) and a tiny bit of red (The red on the flags). Though I think you can almost say that he used only brown tones. I also think he used a tiny bit of purple in the shadows, though I wouldn't be completely sure about that.
The colors he used aren't very saturated though the value of the colors go from very dark (As can been seen on the ships and in the foreground) to very light (as you can see mostly in the left parts of the clouds). The colors are more saturated in the dark parts then they are in the light parts, and also get more saturated the closer they get to you.
I think that this painting works as an whole with the colors is because it is almost equal all around with it's hue. Though the same color is used almost everywhere it doesn't look boring because the big differences in Value.
He used a lot of warm colors in this picture.
I don't know exactly what he wanted to convey with the painting but to me it looks like he wanted to give a bit of an autumn mood to it, using a lot of browns and put behind the clouds a blue, which looks even more "cold" because it is quite complementary (someone has to tell me once how I have to right this word right in english) with all the other warmer tones throughout the painting.
I would say that time-wise he tries to show us something 30-60 minutes before it gets dark. This because of the much lighter colors left of the horizon, which gives to us the idea that the sun is standing very low. Also the long shadows on the water help to confey that idea.
The picture gives a relaxed atmosphere, despite the rough see. I think this is because of the lack of contrasts in the hue, and only subtle contrasts in saturation.
Ok, I think that's all I can see atm for this painting.
My next tradititional painting I picked is:
Artist: Meindert Hobbema (1638-1709)
Painting: Het laantje van Middelharnis (The avenue of Middelharnis)
Another dutch painter from the same period. This is also why I will adding a third painting who uses quite a different technique of colors. After having gone through the city I was borned, I present you now, the village I grew up in
As a contradiction compared to Goyen, he uses a bigger range of colors, and so the painting has more hue in it compared to the other one. Though not color-wise but horizon and set-up wise you can see a relation between both painters. As common with the dutch painters during the 17th century, the landscape has a low horizon and lots of clouds above it.
But to get back to the colors. As I already said, it has a lot of hue in it, though the picture isn't very saturated. He has added a lot grey to his colors. Again the value shifts again from almost black to a lot lighter on the road and in the sky.
So instead of having the hue on the same level almost all the time the saturation is on the same level almost all the time, which I think is the biggest difference between this and the other painting.
He creates space in the picture color-wise by making the colors darker in the front and lighter in the background. And also the darker colors are more saturated then the lighter colors.
I think he used the red on the roofs of the building to spice things up.
Ok, now for my last traditional painting:
Artist: Renoir (1841-1919)
Title: The path through the long grass
Well what can I say. Renoir = color. He uses a huge amount of colors, which probably most we won't even see on a picture this small.
The picture consist mostly out of warm colors, except for the trees and the people's clothing, and some purple shadows here and there.
Though you can see quite darker and quite lighter colors, I don't think that overall there is a big contrast between them. Most of the shadows and contrasts are made by making use of complementary colors, which aren't only used to create shadow but also to give the whole painting color-wise a bombardic effect.
From the yellow in the grass we go straight to the purple in the sky. From the red flowers to the green leaves. You can even see orange on the path which again stands in contrasts with the blue spots which you see best with the trees at the left side of the painting.
There has been no black used in this painting.
Ok, well this were the 3 traditional paintings I picked. I will do the 2 digital later on. I'm surprised how much time this took me, and how little I actually have put down. And from what I've put down I have the feeling more then half of it, is wrong. Well, it is a good excersise. That's for sur
frederic church
if there's anything i like more than trees and clouds in landscapes is water...so im a big fan of seascape...i grew up by the sea too so maybe that's part of the influence. anyway to the colors....there is an overall warm temperature in the piece, the warm hues in the upper part of the painting complement the cooler colors in the water in the foreground. your eyes are taken straight to the middle area lit up nicely bye the unsaturated yellow hues. there's an immediate break from the dark water being lit directly by the sunlight , the contrast helps with the illusion and sillhouettes the ship. the higher saturating here with the darker colors draws the eyes then to the water scape on the lower left corner. the darker hues with the contrasting highights while still mixing in the hues from the sky give great form to the waves. the lighter blue hues on the upper left and the constrasting clouds in the far distance lit up directly by light tie it all together.
water is very interesting i thi nk because of how it plays with color from allthe surroundings not only from whats above but what's below it as well.
this scape just wowed me, my eyes went directly to the center right of the image because of the warmer colors where the water is being hit directly by sunlight probably from directly above tho the sun has to be behind cloud cover, the bluer hues on the left of the water and the clouds and sky create more of a contrast in the center and the saturated foam on the wave fronts bring the effect to its maximum. the closer rocks and branch have warmer hues and more saturation as seems to be the case with the other studies you guys made. the far right being less saturated, the left being a completely shifted in hue and feel concentrates everything to the middle.
edwin rhemrev
very unsaturated colors tho the heavy black in the lower left corner is a bit too flat i would think although it does give the illusion of being completely in shadow and the lighter hues in the waterfall and rock face behind it. keeping with atmospheric perspective the saturation lowers as it goes further with the last towers. the bright lights form the windows and doors give great contrast and pull the eyes to investigate each one. in the center the contrast between the figure and the waterfall make it tand out. the highlights on the rocks and the pole and difference in hues and values give the light source direction. so overall its has a grayer tone as it draws further back.
Marcin Jakubowski
the great thing about this image is the contrast between the saturated blue sky and orange from the structure...the top center portion is where my eyes go first, the parts being naturally lit. i think his use of darker hues in the lower levels and on the forground images adds to the effect. the colder shadows and the warmer colors on teh building just make pop out even more. of course less saturated blues and oranges are used to give texture to the building. atmospheric perspective keeping witht he hues and blending them gives the desired effect of distance.
also the light source coming from the ship the saturated blue draws the veiwers vission there and the lit smoke and uderside of the ship give it a great effect using contrast.
well thats it for me my four studies tho im sure i didn't give some of these paintings justice.
since this is a learning thread i'd like ot ask some quesitons u know to discuss and stuff...im not very good at value and hues and stuff like that cause i never studied it before.
for the last picture with the space ship...ok would it be right in saying the pictures has blue hues, orange hues touches of green and maybe some purple. in values the distant objects in orange hues have lower value than the forground orange? and the blue hues have less values in the shadow of the object? also the shadows appear cooler because of the warm color in the main building? the main building has more saturated oranges and the shadow is unsaturated blues? is that right? i mean its harder to grasp the concept of value and saturation effectively with only words but if there are pictures like we're doing it more effective i think.
you know,I work for theater directors
and some times, its cool to give them MORE than what they actually asked for .
asa costume designer I love talking to my directors to see where they are coming fromm . and trying to see if what i can give them is more than what they expected. maybe even pushing their ideas into new directions. ou dont have to take what an at director says as gospel. but you do have to take what they say. If you want to make some thing new of it. you better be able to sell it really well.

Sketch book
Alot of nice studies by people here, I havent read through all of them yet, but I am working on it
Its been quiet here for a while now, and i thought about bringing up some general discussion regarding colour theory.
So here are some loose question to make people think maybe..
- Is colour contrast most efficient in temperature contrast or direct colour contrast?
- What is the main purpose of colour in an image?
- Can colour save an image from being bad?
- What do YOU think is the best way to use colour? Do you prefere to put down the main colour first, or do you put down the contrasting colours?
- Can the use of Temperature changes be used to create a focus point?
There are many things you can say about colour i guess, its a pretty hard topic to study, and for me i learn the more i think about it and look at other images. But also by experimenting with what works and not.
Colours in an image doesnt need to represent reality for me, I like to use colours in a more freely way to represent a certain mood and feeling in the picture. Thinking more in the way that I dont need to paint a skyscraper nececarely grey cause thats the most common colour, but depending on what the mood of the city is gonna be you can experiment with colours. It might represent the cold environment of liveing in a big city that some people experience, and it might be better then to use cold colours more in the direction of blue to represent this.
This topic is probably one of the hardest one we have. There are so much you can explorer here:
- Colour conttrast
- How colour works in light and shadow
- Temperature contrast
- What colours create certain temperatures
- What colours creates feelings and moods of an image
Here is what some countries say about diffrent colours: (Information is gathered from diffrent sources)
Wester culture
Blue, Red, White and Grey = Stability, Power, Trustworthiness, Conservatism
Yellow, Brown, Orange, Green = Nature, earthiness, warmth
Red, Orange, yellow = more warmth
Blues and Aquas = water and coolness
Primary colors (Red, Blue, Yellow) = Convey fun
Asian culture
Red: Happiness, marriage, prosperity
Pink Marriage
Yellow: Against evil, for the dead, geomantic blessings
Green: Eternity, family, harmony, health, peace, posterity
Blue: Self-cultivation, wealth
Purple: Wealth
White: Children, helpful people, marriage,
mourning, peace, purity, travel
Gold: Strength, wealth
Gray: Helpful people, travel
Black: Career, evil influences, knowledge, mourning, penance, self-cultivation
This show how we look diffrently on several colours in the west and the eastern parts of the world. Also if you look at this colour has alot to do with Psycholigal effects from person to person. Two people might look at the same paintings and get diffrent feelings from it. There are several pages on internet where you can read about how colour have an effect of psychologicaly. Like here: Wikpieda: Color.
Here is also an image to show the difference in colour temperature

Live the life you love, love the life you live
Hi guys. Long time no see. Here is the first assignment I did. I'm seeing some pretty good explanations on some people. But as we do know that we come at a common ground in the end on theories. I really appreciate our classmates' efforts. And i did learn a lot on seeing at picture, as for example: how to use mosaic effects and desaturation to further make examinations at picture, find and look at compositions...and gundersen's hints and tips view on colors in different cultures, how to use color picker effectively to make custom color palletes etc. Thanks guys. My english isnt that well so please be humble if i write anything wrong or unlogical.
Caspar David Friedrich "the Polar sea"
This painting took my attention because of the colors and lighting. As u can see there are so many hues and values mixed in making it so colorful. But it doesn't have much saturation. The basic colors are mostly cool colors. As blue, tan, green and browns. This affects the picture's atmosphere overall coldness.
The background gets more cooler and less contrasted as it gets further. And the sky looks so cloudy. But there is a little sunlight passing in to the center. The sunlight position is made clear by more lighter colored clouds. But the light colored clouds are still greyish. The painting takes the viewers' eyes directly at the center. Because the contrast of light and dark and I think there seem to be slightly higher saturation of colors there. And It also stands out from other areas like background and foreground. For the foreground the painter used more darker colors and less saturations.
Thomas Cole "L'Allegro"
This painting has more lighter colors and warm tone. The overall tone looks ochre yellowish. As u can see this painting has 4 perspective levels. So let me start from the most farthest.
As for the sky and far away mountains it still kept the warm colors. But as u see the mountain in the far back end it looks violet and that means the color went cooler and the color of the sky affected it greatly ( it reminds me of Form's saying : as these factors are always changing, it is impossible to say that 'a red apple should always have bluish shadows'. Because if it is placed on an orange table that theory goes out the window. ). And it looks less contrasted and the details are near zero.
As for the 3rd mid ground the saturation is low, and less contrast making it look that there is a lotta air atmosphere. As for the shades in the mountain it doesn't have blue tone but went more grey dark.
2nd mid ground becomes more contrasted and higher saturations as it come close. Even thou the tree and hill are both green the heavy dark shadows in the trees make it easy to separate. An this also applied for the ruins too.
The foreground is the most contrasted and most saturated part in the picture. It has more warmer colors. And the grass are affected strongly by it and looks almost yellow ( well yellow green of course ). Since we know the overall tone it doesn't look yellow. But the artist put the most high saturation, contrast and lightness on the people in order to make it the first thing we will see. The grass and ground on the front right of the picture has lost its colors a bit, due to shadows cast over them.
Matthias Verhaselt
Here is another great example. It was mostly done with cooler colors because of the setting. The setting is in a misty area and mountainous, making it rich with shades and grey tones. The same thing also happened here is that the further it goes the cooler and close to the sky of the color it gets. And of course less contrasts. Mist sure does it's thing. But also I think the strength sunlight has great effect on the saturation of colors itself.
Final fantasy
I think this was a concept art. I was just shuffling through my collection of digital arts and stumbled upon this one. I don't know who did it…it doesn't matter anyways.
The haze in the air has made significant effect on this one as you see ( same as mist – I hope you remember when I spoke about dryness and humidity effects in the last week's class). The haze is actually the color of the sky it seems. And it had blurred out most of the part and lowered the contrasts. As the objects get further away it's colors have became more similar to the color of the sky and cooled down. We can see that the closer ground looks bit more warmer and slightly high in contrast of values and saturation.
Soon i will post the "Dream" work

As for what the different parts of the world think of what colors mean to them, that can always cause some problems because what one person sees in an image, just because of the colors, that will be totally different from what the next person will feel or see. I've always wondered if there was a set of rules for putting colors together like red and green or yellow and blue. These are just random, but is there some way out there that to effectively combine colors in a painting that will give a certain sense of emotion to anyone. and pretty much transcend certain eastern and western sociological influences.
About that color table, I have seen that before and it has always confused me when it has to do with colors. According to that, the bluer something the warmer it is (10,000k), and the more red it is the cooler it is (1,000k) but thats just my interpretation, but this seems backwards to me, with this if your temperature number is higher that means warmer. I thought that cool temperatures were blue (like ice or water) and warm temperatures were orange, red (like a fire)
on my monitor, there are different color settings (hitachi CRT);
9300k 6500k 5000k
9300 being more blue-ish and 5000 being more orange-ish.
this seems to go with that color table
this monitor was originally set up to adobe's color settings. they give you that little picture with the greyscales and all the different colors, and you have to go thru that process with adobe, changing all the settings on the monitor.
Anyway these are just my thoughts, it would be great to here what you guys think.
We covered color temperature in astronomy class, it relates to the colors given off based on burned energy.
Some stars are blue/white and have a high color temperature of ...10,000,000+Kelvin, but don't quote me on that.
Some stars burn red/orange and have a lower color temperature of ONLY 7,900,000Kelvin.
Incandescent light bulbs "burn" at about 5600Kelvin so they have lower color temperature, while the brighter, whiter, bluer (remember why the sky is blue?) light from the sun outside is a higher color temperature of around...what was it...8700? 7800?
Did this help at all?
EDIT: Here, check out this article.
Much better job of explaining.
Nice to see some discussion starting guys!
Jodali Yes indeed it would be cool to get some understanding to create certain moods with diffrent colours. Everyone knows that a blue icy landscape looks cold, but what kind of colours can you use to create a romantic feel? angry feel? Lonely feel?
So many hard questions..
The Temperature thing:
I see that it can be confusing the first times you look at it since logicaly you think that a darker colours is warmer. But lights aswell as colours are counted in theire strength to lighten up a place. A candel light is counted as 1 Lux, which is the weakest source of light by scale we use in Architecture.
So the blue light is a stronger light source when it comes to lighting up something, you can easily see that on new cars where they are useing Neon head lights instead of the old classic ones that had a more dark yellow light.
So yes in the way we look at it, Dark colours a warmer and Light colours cooler. No idea if that explained anything or just made everyone prety damn confused hehe

the following is a quote from wikipedia.......
In physics, Planck's law describes the spectral radiance of electromagnetic radiation at all wavelengths from a black body at temperature T. As a function of frequency ν, Planck's law is written as:
I(\nu,T) =\frac{2 h\nu^{3}}{c^2}\frac{1}{ e^{\frac{h\nu}{kT}}-1}. [1]
As a function of wavelength λ it is written (for infinitesimal solid angle) as:
I(\lambda,T) =\frac{2 hc^2}{\lambda^5}\frac{1}{ e^{\frac{hc}{\lambda kT}}-1}. [2]
Note that this formula will vary slightly by a constant factor (often a pi) depending on the field of view assumed in the derivation. Note also that the two functions have different units - the first is radiance per unit frequency interval while the second is radiance per unit wavelength interval. Hence, the quantities I(ν,T) and I(λ,T) are not equivalent to each other. To derive one from the other, they cannot simply be set equal to each other (ie: the expression for λ in terms of ν cannot just be substituted into the first equation to get the second). However, the two equations are related through:
It seems that I have jumped into a pit of chaos and confusion trying to deal with color theory btw I have absolutely no clue what any of the above means

Potassium is a chemical found throughout the body. It helps our cells, tissues and organs function properly.
98% of the body's potassium lives inside our cells. Only 2% is found in the water (serum) in our blood stream. Still, the only practical way to measure whether we have the right amount of potassium is with a blood test.
The normal serum potassium level is 3.5 to 5.0 milliequivalents per liter. But most healthy people have potassium levels of 3.8 or higher.
Doctors refer to a low serum potassium level as hypokalemia.
Most people with mild hypokalemia will have minimal or no symptoms. The symptoms that they can have are fatigue, weakness and muscle cramps. Moderate and severe hypokalemia can cause marked fatigue and muscle weakness.
Hypokalemia is most worrisome in people who have heart disease. A low potassium level increases the chance of a heart rhythm problem. This is sometimes a dangerous situation.
The most common cause of hypokalemia is diuretic use. Other causes include:
There are several other rarer causes, too.

A day after losing the first presidential debate, President Barack Obama and his campaign accused his Republican challenger Mitt Romney of being dishonest about tax policy and other issues.
"If you want to be president, you owe the American people the truth," Obama said at a campaign rally Thursday in Denver. "So here's the truth: Governor Romney cannot pay for his $5 trillion tax plan without blowing up the deficit or sticking it to the middle class. That's the math."
The president's top aides were even more blunt.
"Romney's performance was one that's probably unprecedented in its dishonesty," senior adviser David Plouffe told reporters.
Still, senior campaign adviser David Axelrod acknowledged Obama will examine his debate strategy for the next two contests -- on October 16 in New York and October 22 in Florida.
The president opted against "serial fact-checking with Governor Romney, which can be a never-ending, exhausting pursuit," Axelrod said. "Obviously, going forward, we're going to have to look at this, and we're going to have make some adjustments."
Meanwhile, Romney continued to push his debate theme that there's been much federal spending under Obama, complaining of "trickle-down government" that has failed to solve the nation's economic woes.
"Trickle-down government that the president proposes is one where he will raise taxes on small business, which will kill jobs" he said in an unannounced visit Thursday to a conservative conference in Colorado. "I instead want to keep taxes down on small business so we can create jobs."
He and his vice presidential running mate, Paul Ryan, then appeared together Thursday night in Fisherville, in western Virginia. Ryan touted the National Rifle Association's endorsement earlier in the day of the GOP ticket, adding that he's looking forward to when "after we elect Mitt Romney president, I can take my daughter deer hunting."
Both the Wisconsin congressman and Romney, who followed him onstage, referenced the previous night's debate as demonstrating "a clear choice" for voters.
"Last night was an important night for the country, because people got the chance to cut through all the attacks and the counterattacks and all the theatrics associated with the campaign, and instead they were able to listen to substance," said the former Massachusetts governor.
"As a result ..., the American people recognize that (Obama) and I stand for something very different," he said, before vowing, "I am going to help the American people get good jobs and a bright future."
His supporters crowed about his debate performance, saying it reshaped a race that Romney had appeared in danger of losing.
Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, who played the role of the president in debate rehearsals for Romney, said the GOP candidate had a "terrific night" in discussing Obama's record, talking about his own policies and setting "the record straight on ... misleading ads."
"He did exactly what he had to do for the undecided voter in Ohio or around the country," Portman said.
To Ed Gillespie, a senor adviser to Romney, the GOP challenger brought focus to the sharp contrast between the candidates by showing voters that "we can't afford four more years like the last four years."
While both sides were in full spin mode Thursday, it was widely felt that Romney won the debate itself.
"A week ago, people were saying this was over. We've got a horse race," said CNN Senior Political Analyst David Gergen, who called the debate Romney's best so far after the 22 the former Massachusetts governor took part in during the GOP primary campaign.
Alex Castellanos, a Republican strategist and CNN contributor, expressed surprise at Romney's strong performance, saying he "rose to the moment" and seemed to benefit from the multiple primary debates.
"It looked like Romney wanted to be there and President Obama didn't want to be there," noted Democratic strategist and CNN contributor James Carville. "The president didn't bring his 'A' game."
The CNN/ORC International poll of 430 people who watched the debate showed 67% thought Romney won, compared with 25% for Obama.
Obama joked Thursday that a different Romney appeared at the debate from the conservative candidate who won a grueling primary campaign to challenge him on November 6.
"When I got on to the stage I met this very spirited fellow who claimed to be Mitt Romney," Obama said told the crowd of more than 12,000 at a Denver park. "But it couldn't have been Mitt Romney because the real Mitt Romney has been running around the country for the last year promising $5 trillion in tax cuts that favor the wealthy. The fellow on stage last night said he didn't know anything about that."
In Denver and later in Wisconsin, Obama also went after Romney's pledge during the debate to cut funding for public broadcasting, referring specifically to the popular Sesame Street character Big Bird.
"He'll get rid of regulations on Wall Street, but he's going to crack down on Sesame Street," Obama joked about Romney's pledge to repeal the Dodd-Frank Act that reforms the financial sector.

I think NIN and Depeche Mode are a lock. The Friday night snooze headliner is still up for grabs.
I could only hope it would be

Sunday: Kanye West * Daft Punk
I know 2 repeaters from 2011 would be unlikely, but I don't get why nobody was satisfied as the Sunday headliner. That's one of the biggest grabs there is IMO
damnnnn kendrick headlining set... that would be crazy. such a quick jump
NIN/Green Day/U2
McCartney wouldn't headline again, would he? Too soon?
11/21 - Pearl Jam - Viejas Arena

I'm casting my lot with the Daft/Depeche/NIN prediction, but I'm really pining for Bowie and an Arcade Fire return.
I can see Bowie in 2015 when Arcade Fire does return....
Wouldnt surprise me if all 3 headliners are already booked for next year. Seems like two have been confirmed, the thirds a bit trickier. Daft is out until 2016/17. David Byrne has been performing a ton of TH material on his latest tour though still a long shot due to relationships with the rest of the band. Pearl Jam will finally have released their new album, but voices on the board seem to think theres already a bad relationship between the two parties. MGMT and Arctic Monkeys still too soon, but expect them both as subs. Id still really love to see Elton John headline a night.
Coachella 07 (the introduction), 08 (the bands), 09 (the documentary), 10 (the people i came with), 11 (the relationship test... we passed), 12 (whatever the weather, Dirty Epic forever), 13 (the year of the troll)
We all know GV likes to have one fringe headliner every year. If the tradition continues, which of these bands are most likely to be promoted to headliner status for next year?
M83 (no news on new album, but could see pressure to keep the momentum after recent successes)
Florence & the Machine (new album in the works)
The National (everyone here thinks they got it, but OSL and Bonnaroo don't seem to think so)
MGMT (new album in works, supposed to be more out there than congratulations)
Foster the People (new album coming soon)
Fun. (they blew up, not sure when next album comes out)

Ya'll think PT was bluffing in that Stagecoach interview?
M83 & Florence seem most likely from that list above; in fact I was thinking about the possibility of the latter yesterday especially given the new focus on the "lack" of female presence. Can't really speak on The National but aren't they kind of somber? I've been chastised here for considering Foster but I think at best they'd be a sub next time around. Same with fun. I guess. MGMT needs some real momentum to headline since few people really care about their output post-2008.
Decreasing? No way. I've been following this band since they played their first NYC show at Mercury Lounge. Every time they come back, they're playing at bigger spaces....
But you're right out about Phoenix being more popular than AM in the states! Kinda sad really...
I have no clue what their tour plans are, but if they were to play, fun. would get the Mumford and Sons spot from 2011.
Super popular, lot of radio play... 8:30 on the main stage, 3rd on the poster on their day.
Friday: co-headliners General Public and Fine Young Cannibals (after months of rumors of booking U2)
Saturday: fun.
Sunday: Tool
Coachella 2013: the sequel
Fui quod es, eris quod sum. I once was what you are, you will be what I am - epitaph carved on Roman gravestones.
Sorry, you guys, but Kendrick Lamar sucks live.
The junior-headliners always seem to be Coachella darlings: bands like Phoenix, The Black Keys, The Killers, Kings of Leon, and Jack Johnson, who first appeared on the Coachella poster in small font and played a tent in the middle of the day, but worked their way up after a few more appearances. I think Paul likes to showcase the bands his festival has nurtured on their way to stardom.
That rules out Fun.. Foster and The National (I think) have only played Coachella once, so it's not like they've been nurtured by the Coachella brand. MGMT's popularity has gone in the opposite direction (and it doesn't sound like their new album is going to be very mainstream-friendly), and M83 just finished that Tom Cruise soundtrack and doesn't have anything else lined up that we know about. That leaves Florence, who actually makes a ton of sense.
I'm off the Daft bandwagon. We're getting Florence/Depeche/NIN next year.
If you replace Foo Fighters with either NIN or Tool, this would be THE ultimate Coachella. I don't think I'd have to go to another one again, and would certainly go to both weekends.
Also, aside from Tom, kinda surprised Tool hasn't been mentioned as much with their new album in the works...
Tosca - 3.3.14 @ El Rey Theatre
Coachella - 4.11.14 - 4.13.14 @ Empire Polo Grounds
Most of the bands (M83, Florence, AM, M&S, Arcade Fire, The National etc...) already headlined or played Coachella 2011 and 2012. Don't need to see them again so soon.

A diagnosis of cancer can be one of the worst things that can happen in your life. But chemotherapy , the very thing that is used to treat cancer, can be frightening too. Chemotherapy brings with it several side effects, one of the most common is difficulty eating. Here are some strategies to help you eat healthy while receiving chemotherapy.
How Chemotherapy Affects Eating
Chemotherapy acts by targeting and killing rapidly dividing cells, such as cancer cells. But, other cells in your body divide quickly as well, including the cells that line the gastrointestinal tract. Because of this, chemotherapy can have a profound impact on your ability to eat. Some chemotherapy side effects that affect your eating include:
- Loss of appetite
- Changes in taste and smell
- Mouth tenderness, inflammation, and sores
- Nausea and vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
Eating well, however, is crucial to your recovery. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), getting enough calories and nutrients while receiving chemotherapy can help you to:
- Improve how you feel
- Maintain strength, energy, and weight
- Tolerate side effects from chemotherapy
- Decrease the risk of infection
- Be able to recover faster
Tips for Eating
At times, it may seem almost impossible to eat when you are receiving chemotherapy. The following suggestions may help you to get the much-needed nutrients and calories, while minimizing other side effects like nausea and vomiting.
"The best advice for patients receiving chemotherapy is to eat smaller, more frequent meals of easily tolerated foods," says Claire Saxton, who worked as an oncology dietitian with the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, MA. "Fatty, greasy foods and spicy foods," Saxton notes, "might not be well-tolerated, so I steer clients away from these choices."
It is important to note that nutrition suggestions for a person receiving chemotherapy can be very different from what is recommended for daily healthy eating. Saxton explains, "Some patients need a reminder that this is a very different time for their bodies—they can and should throw some of the healthy eating rules out the window. I recommend not choosing reduced calorie, reduced fat, or light foods, but instead opting for the full-fat options when buying cheese, milk, and other foods."
Dealing With Loss of Appetite
Most chemotherapy medicines cause some degree of appetite loss, which can range from mild to severe and can even lead to malnutrition. Usually, the change in appetite is temporary. Your appetite should return once you have completed chemotherapy. Until this happens, try some of the following tips:
- Eat small meals every 1-2 hours, instead of the traditional three larger meals a day.
- Eat high-protein, high-calorie foods.
Add extra calories and protein to meals by using ingredients like:
- Milk powder
- Protein powder
- Peanut butter
- Butter
- Honey, jam, and sugar
- Cheese and cream cheese
- Use liquid supplements that are specially prepared with extra nutrients (found in most health food stores)
- Drink shakes, smoothies, milk, and soup if chewing and eating solid food is a problem.
Eat soft foods that are easy to chew and swallow, such as:
- Soft fruits (bananas, applesauce, watermelon, peaches, and pears)
- Cottage cheese
- Mashed potatoes
- Macaroni and cheese
- Custards and puddings
- Scrambled eggs
- Oatmeal or other cooked cereals
Supplement meals with snacks that are rich in protein and calories, like:
- Nuts
- Cheese (soft, hard, and cottage)
- Avocado spread on toast or crackers
- Hard boiled eggs
- Full-fat yogurt
- Try to get a lot of calories at breakfast, as this may be the most tolerable meal of the day.
- Avoid drinking fluids with meals to prevent feeling full from the fluid. Continue to drinks fluids throughout the rest of the day.
- Eat in a pleasant environment with other people.
Managing Nausea and Vomiting
Nausea and vomiting are very common side effects of chemotherapy. If you are experiencing either, talk with your doctor. There are several drugs that prevent or alleviate nausea and vomiting. These medicines can be used before your symptoms appear.
Some things you can do to help manage nausea and vomiting include:
- Eat prior to chemotherapy treatment.
- Avoid foods that are likely to cause nausea, such as spicy foods, greasy foods, or foods with strong odors.
- Eat small meals.
- Slowly sip fluids throughout the day.
- Eat dry, bland foods like crackers, toast, or breadsticks throughout the day.
- Sit up or lie down with the upper body raised for one hour after eating.
- Avoid eating in the room where food was prepared. The odor may be too strong.
- Avoid eating in a room that is too warm.
- Rinse out your mouth both before and after eating.
- Suck on hard candies, like peppermints or lemon drops, if there is a bad taste in your mouth.
In addition, social support is critical to your recovery. Take advantage of the kindness of others. Let your family and friends help you. Ask for assistance with grocery shopping, meal preparation, and clean up. If you have no one to help you, investigate resources in your area, like a community assistance center, support groups, local churches, social service centers, or senior centers.
If you are having problems eating, Saxton suggests asking your oncologist for a referral to a registered dietitian (RD). An RD can help you develop eating plans that may be better tolerated, while providing calories and nutrients.
One Final—But Important—Note
When you undergo cancer treatment, you can develop a weakened immune system. Avoiding foodborne illnesses is essential. Take the following steps to prevent this:
- Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly, even if you plan on peeling the fruit or vegetable.
- Wash your hands and food preparation surfaces before and after preparing food, especially after handing raw meat.
- Thaw meat in the refrigerator, not on the kitchen counter.
- Be sure to cook meat and eggs thoroughly.
- Avoid raw shellfish and sushi.
- Use only pasteurized or processed ciders and juices and pasteurized milk and cheese.
And remember, your doctors may have some helpful hints of their own. There are also some medicines that can stimulate your appetite, reduce nausea, and generally boost your mood.

Another Arkansas Beauty
June 15, 2011 in Bedroom, Classic, Color Palette, Feminine, Gray, Greige, Hottest Designers
Here's another beauty of a bedroom, courtesy of At Home Arkansas. It's the bedroom of Interior Designer Cynthia Smiley. Notice how Cynthia uses textures to perfection. I also love how effortlessly she mixes styles in this room, just look at the Gustavian benches, the sleek modern bed frame, and the coastal elements and rattan bedside tables. The result is luxurious but far from pretentious.
According to At Home Arkansas, the paint color is Benjamin Moore Coastal Fog. To achieve this look, go for light colored fabrics in white, cream, beiges and grays. Pay extra attention to textures, and add a touch a color with toned down hues of peach, green and blue.
This beautiful bouquet of peach colored roses finishes of one of the bedside tables perfectly. The other one is topped with an equally pretty white coral.
This silver leafed dresser is decorated to perfection. The power of a perfect vignette is undeniable. Another closeup just because it's so pretty. To read the article and view the source list, visit At Home Arkansas! Hope you enjoyed this room ;)

5 Colorful Cords We Can't Get Enough Of (And How To Wear Them This Fall)
Corduroys can be a lot of things, but when you add a little color, they're anything but boring. As the leaves start to fall, and the sun begins to set earlier and earlier, we have to look to the little things — like bright yellow pants — to cheer us up. Sure, bold color can be nothing short of intimidating, but when balanced with neutrals and playful patterns, these bright bottoms will add a little pep to your step.

ARCTIC CAT 700 H1 EFI MudPro 2008 - 2009
ARCTIC CAT 700 H1 EFI MudPro (2008 - 2009) Description & History: As its very name clearly states, the 2008 Arctic Cat 700 H1 EFI MudPro is all about riding hard in the mud. Built to withstand the harshest conditions and capable to take on pretty much anything you could throw at it, the 2008 MudPro can be used as a dry land outdoor fun vehicle, but it's when the going gets tough when it really shines.
The "horn" on the bonnet is the air intake: this means you can go very deep in mud and still be perfectly safe and confident nothing bad will happen as long as the tip to the intake is above water level. This accounts for extended usability in places and conditions which will leave other ATVs in shame.. and on land.
The same independent suspensions and automatic, dual-range ratio, 2WD/4WD will make you enjoy rough tracks in the wilderness the way you never thought possible.

And though there were whispers in Maryland during the Preakness that Del Mar is considering going back to dirt on its main track and eliminating Polytrack to be more attractive for the Breeders' Cup, Harper said nothing is in the works on that right now. But he said he learned long ago to "never say never," leaving the Del Mar door open to a dirt track in the near future.
For now, Del Mar, like others in the state, is concentrating on 2014 and helping the game survive in the troubled state.
"Our fall meet really depends on us getting the Breeders' Cup dates," Harper said. "That's where the profit is. Santa Anita seems bent on getting it forever rather than sharing it. That seems to be the only disagreement in the dates schedule right now. It's a matter of equity. Santa Anita is picking up 11 weeks, we're picking up four or five. In order for us to maximize our purses and revenue for the industry we need that Breeders' Cup dates."

Re: Computer specs
Mind you, I can still play everything I want to maxed at 1920x1200 on my 5870, so I'm not sure I see the point yet. In a year or so when they're cheap, maybe. I usually skip every other generation, and even then wait 'till prices come down
One thing I don't do is buy Nvidia cards. They seem to work fine for everyone else, but in my possession they die at a remarkable rate (death toll so far: one 7800GTX (of a pair), one 8800 GTS 512, and two 9800 GX2s (in stages, I fixed them at first by using the still working PCBs from each to make one working card which lasted another 6 months...) I don't even bother overclocking my graphics card, so I really have no idea why they hate me Oddly, I've never killed an ATI card. My 2900XT still works, my 4890 still works - although these have passed onto friends now. Even my old 9800SE AIW (flashed to a Pro) I found in the bottom of a box in the loft still works. Lucky, as I was diagnosing a problem with an AGP (how quaint...) system at the time.

Other free agent defensemen of interest
We've already covered some of the more intriguing players that will be available via free agency, but it doesn't appear likely that the big-ticket guys like Zach Parise and Ryan Suter will end up in New York. The 2012 free agent class is extremely thin, but at the draft last weekend GM Glen Sather confidently stated the team would still be "fairly aggressive" in free agency. So who else could the organization pursue on July 1st?
Yesterday we looked at the forwards; today we'll examine the defensemen.
The Offensive Defensemen
Jason Garrison – Earned himself a huge payday with a surprise season. Rocket of a shot could appeal to the Rangers. Is this what Sather means when he says he'll be "aggressive" in free agency?

Brightroom posted the photos from the Nike Women's Marathon the other day, and let me tell you, there were some winners in my group. And by winners, I mean epic failures. Â But, because I have no shame, I will share some of them with you.
Here we are crossing the finish line. This one isn't actually terrible, I kind of like it, but I don't think I ordered this one.
It's hard to tell from the thumbnail but the look on my face is a combination of joy/pain/tears
This one is even better, my arms look stupid, my face looks like I'm about to die.
I actually ordered this one, because I think it's hilarious and very typical Catherine. Here I am laughing like an idiot. This was early on in the run, possibly still on Embarcadero.
This is the one I did order, I think…they all start to blend together.
So, they're not all terrible, in fact I guess now that I'm looking at them all here they aren't half bad. Â I do wish there was a slightly better one of me actually crossing the finish line, but I'll take it! Next time, I won't wear so much crap. I could have left the Camelbak and been fine, even though it really came in handy carrying all the Gu and our phones.

Jennifer DuBois's new novel asks the central question, How do you keep going when you know things are going to end badly? The book is A Partial History of Lost Causes (Random House, 2012).
Wisconsin leaders recently passed a controversial bill allowing people to hunt wolves starting this fall.The move came shortly after the federal government removed the animal from the endangered species list.Friday, researchers from UW-Madison share what they've learned about the impact wolf harvesting could have on the stability of its population.The team will present its findings in Duluth, where a range of interested people – from scientists to livestock producers, are gathering for an annual conference on wolves in the Great Lakes region.WUWM Environmental Reporter Susan Bence met the Madison researchers before they departed.
Milwaukee will host a home ownership fair Saturday. The goal is to unload many of the foreclosed properties both banks and the city own. City Hall estimates there to be 4,000 such houses. WUWM's LaToya Dennis learned of potential buyers who view foreclosures as a great business opportunity.
In honor of the upcoming Earth Day, we hear about the City of Milwaukee's sustainability program. Matt Howard is the Director of Environmental Sustainability for the City of Milwaukee. Dennis Grzezinski is senior staff counsel for Midwest Environmental Associates and one of the 14 members of the city's Green Team. They spoke with Susan Bence.
What does it take to spot the hidden life in an object many of us would view as junk?
