Pay attention to the just right. When The Goldilocks Zone applying strokes In painting, every technique or process has to the canvas, you what I call a “Goldilocks Zone”. As an artist, may find that you you will be constantly seeking this space to have too much achieve maximum results from any project you’re brush pressure, doing. Much like Goldilocks, you will go into too little brush each technique and try to find a space that pressure, or that is just right for you. When you’re loading your your brush pressure brush, sometimes you will have too much water, is just right. The sometimes you will have too little water, and Goldilocks zone sometimes you will find the amount of water is changes for Copyright: The Art Sherpa LLC - All Rights Reserved every technique and every process. You will know you have found it when something that seemed difficult suddenly becomes much easier. A little goal I’d like to set for you is to notice when you have found yourself in the Goldilocks Zone so that you can locate it again easier the next time you come across a particular technique. COLOR MIX EXTRA INFO: The Reds in the painting are a mix of Cadmium Red and Mars Black. To deepen, you would add more Mars Black; to brighten, you add more Cadmium Red to the mix. When you get to an almost pure cadmium level, then you can begin to add just a little bit of Cadmium Yellow Medium to create the brightest highlights. You don’t want to add the Cadmium Yellow to a mix where the Mars Black is strong in the color as this will take you into a golden brown more than a bright light red. THE SKY GRAYS AND REFLECTIONS The sky, distant mountains, and reflections are based in an Ultramarine Blue and Burnt Sienna mix. These two colors, mixed together, make a beautiful neutral Gray. you can get a lot of variety by balancing out the blue to the brown. If you want to move more into the sky values, a little more blue and a lot of Titanium White. This is also true for the reflection on the book. Copyright: The Art Sherpa LLC - All Rights Reserved Step 1 - The Background COLORS AND MATERIALS FOR STEP: MB TW • Paint your canvas a slate gray made from a mixture of MB & TW with a large brush and allow to dry; repeat if necessary. It must be dry and completely cool before proceeding. TRANSFER THE IMAGE MATERIALS & COLORS FOR STEP: T SQUARE CRETACOLOR PASTEL WHITE PENCIL, DRITZ CHALK TOOL, OR CHALK • For this project, because of the size, I chose the gridding method and marked the canvas with 2” horizontal and vertical squares, numbered by 2’s. • Both the gridding method and the transfer method are discussed in more detail in the Technique Reference section of this booklet. SKETCH IN THE IMAGE • Use your favorite method to sketch out chalk lines of the contours of your subject. You can use freehand, the tracing method, the gridding method or projection. How you personally choose to put your subject matter on the canvas is up to you. There is no right or wrong here only process. Choose a method that you’re comfortable with and gives you a result that you’re happy with. • It’s important that your mountains not be pyramids; they are formed by wind and geology, so they are really rounded rocks. Copyright: The Art Sherpa LLC - All Rights Reserved Step 2 - Roughing In Base Values COLORS AND MATERIALS FOR STEP: QM, PB, UB, BS, TW #10 TAS BRIGHT section that peeks in under the cup holder ring. Aqua turquoise with PB & TW for the snow. • You may want to change out your water before Step 3. • The winter-blue-gray sky is put in with a #10 Bright and a mix of UB & BW + TW. Ok to allow some of the background gray to peek through. Come back with white for highlights. • Add a little PG to the sky mix and fill in the furthest mountain; deepen a little for the middle mountains. Mountains should be lighter at the top and darken as they come closer to earth. This creates Atmospheric Perspective - the way objects work in the real world to tell us how close or far objects are from us. My brush strokes are directional, but very loose, working in the sky color creates a sense or organic being. As you paint in the background, know that we will have some trees peeking through. • Snow is UB & TW and I can always add a bit of QM into it if it is too blue. Don’t forget the Step 3 - Blocking in Window, Table Top, and Teachable Moments COLORS AND MATERIALS FOR STEP: CRM, QM, CYM, BS, MB, TW #10 TAS BRIGHT • The window sill is a loose mix of RS + QM + TW with a touch of CYM. The reason for the red is to capture the reflected light from all of the red influences. BS, MB & TW for the table top, add a little CYM. • This step was a real teachable moment when I had to move the lower window sill up and adjust the table top, and go back into the mountainscape and adjusted the mountains. These moments happen to us all, it’s not just you. Happy little mistakes that are fully correctable because acrylic is so forgiving. Copyright: The Art Sherpa LLC - All Rights Reserved Step 4 - Blocking In The Reds COLORS AND MATERIALS FOR STEP: CRM CYM NYL BS • Scarf is MB + CRM; darkest in the folds of the fabric, MB lighter as it moves away from the fold or is in the light. TW Add a little TW where the fabric is in direct light. #10 TAS BRIGHT • TW + NYL on the inside rim of the cup. • BS + CYM + NYL and rough in the side book pages; darken mix with BS and paint the bottom book pages, which are darker. Add a little TW to mix for highlights. CRM & MB for the leather book cover. I put CRM on the top of the book nearer the window to reflect light coming onto the book from outside. More TW to the color where the book is in fuller light. • CRM + MB for the bottom of the cup holder and the bottom of the cup by the book (it’s the shadow of the cup on the book). Less MB as it moves up the side of the cup, but again, it’s still in shadow. CRM around the tip of the cup rim in back and at the top of the cup handle.

After the success of Sarah Sands’ article on the ‘Subtleties of Color’ (JP 21), we recognized the value of continuing to provide more color resources for artists.

Following up on this work to create a printed color chart trying to represent real paint colors, Chris Farrell, our Creative Director and person in charge of putting together this chart, is our principle advocate that printing, no matter how carefully it’s done, cannot be a substitute Color for paint.

Developed for birding classes at San Francisco City College. See <http://fog.ccsf.cc.ca.us/~jmorlan/> for course schedules and further information. The following dichotomous keys are designed to aid beginning and intermediate gull watchers. They will not resolve the identification of all gulls found on the West Coast. They are geared toward identification of our regularly occurring gull species from September through March and may not match features shown in spring and summer. Hybrid gulls, which are readily seen in some areas, are not addressed. Successful use of these keys first requires determination of the age of the bird. Some useful points to focus in aging gulls are given at the beginning of each key. Distinctive species, such as Bonaparte’s, Heermann’s and Sabine’s gulls and Black-legged Kittiwake are not included.

  • Report on Six Recent Sightings of the Iceland
    EO O SI ECE SIGIGS O E ICEA GU I O CAOIA WI COMMES O OEMS O IE IEIICAIO JOHN O. FUSSELL III, MICHAEL J. TOVE, and HARRY E. LeGRAND JR. Abstract.—Observations of six Iceland Gulls, seen in Carteret and Dare Counties in 1980 and 1981, are discussed. Evidence is presented to show that these gulls were not hybrids, or albinistic or leucistic individuals, or Glaucous or Thayer's Gulls. Separation of Iceland Gull and Thayer's Gull can be difficult and some individuals probably cannot be safely identified. Emphasis is placed on "building a case" for the identification of any "white-winged" gull. Reports of "white-winged" gulls [in this paper, Glaucous Gull (r hprbr and Iceland Gull (. ld] in the Carolinas are increasing. Including those in this paper, there are 78 known records-51 of Glaucous Gull, 23 of Iceland Gull, and four of unidentified species. Almost three-fourths of these records were made during the last decade. This increase is probably due in part to an increase in gull populations and in part to an increase in the number of capable observers, especially in regard to coverage along the coast in winter. Many of the recent winter records were made after periods of abnormally cold weather. With the increase in "white-winged" gull sightings, there have been some controversies in the Carolinas (see Am. Birds 31:321, Chat 42:10). This is not surprising, for this group of birds can pose identification problems in the field (and sometimes in the hand). A frequent problem is that in areas where Glaucous and Iceland Gulls are uncommon to rare, or among observers unfamiliar with these species, there has been a strong tendency to misidentify small Glaucous Gulls as Iceland Gulls.
