Ask a Master Gardener
ASK A MASTER GARDENER COLORFUL WINTER STEMS By Trish Grenfell, Placer County Master Gardener Q Each winter my bloodtwig dogwood has produced a spectacular show with its bright red stems, but this year the branches are a dull grey. What happened? Can you suggest another shrub/small tree with bright winter stems to replace it? A If your bloodtwig dogwood Cornus sanguinea is healthy, there is a simple method to restore its glory next winter: prune it! Late winter or early spring (February-March), before the leaves begin to appear on the stems, is the best time to prune. This allows the maximum time to enjoy the colorful stems, while encouraging vigorous new shoots and foliage for the coming season. For dogwoods with intense bark colors, the branches you want to remove are those older than three years old. Those that need pruning are identified by their lack of desired color. Usually this does not include all the stems, but if you have never pruned, it may mean they all must be pruned this spring. Cut as close as possible to the base (crown) of the plant without cutting that base. If you would like to add additional dogwoods to brighten your winter garden, consider adding a redtwig dogwood - Cornus sericea sometimes called C. stolonifera (red stems), yellowtwig dogwood – C. Flaviramea (yellow-green stems), or Tatarian dogwood – C. alba (blood red stems). Follow the same pruning rules for continued winter color as described for the bloodtwig dogwood. Many willows also provide brilliant winter interest with their colorful, curving bare branches. -

ID 97849); published December 24, 2008 We studied changes in the color appearance of a chromatic stimulus as it underwent simultaneous contrast with a more luminous surround. Three normal trichromats provided color-naming descriptions for a 10 cd/m2 monochromatic field while a broadband white annulus surround ranged in luminance from 0.2 cd/m2 to 200 cd/m2. Descriptions of the chromatic field included Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, White, and Black or their combinations. The naming frequencies for each color/surround were used to calculate measures of similarity among the stimuli. Multidimensional scaling analysis of these subjective similarities resulted in a four-dimensional color space with two chromatic axes, red–green and blue–yellow, and two achromatic axes, revealing separate qualities of blackness/lightness and saturation. Contrast-induced darkening of the chro- matic field was found to be accompanied by shifts in both hue and saturation. Hue shifts were similar to the Bezold–Brücke shift; shifts in saturation were also quantified. -
Color Vision Mechanisms
11 COLOR VISION MECHANISMS Andrew Stockman Department of Visual Neuroscience UCL Institute of Opthalmology London, United KIngdom David H. Brainard Department of Psychology University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 11.1 GLOSSARY Achromatic mechanism. Hypothetical psychophysical mechanisms, sometimes equated with the luminance mechanism, which respond primarily to changes in intensity. Note that achromatic mech- anisms may have spectrally opponent inputs, in addition to their primary nonopponent inputs. Bezold-Brücke hue shift. The shift in the hue of a stimulus toward either the yellow or blue invariant hues with increasing intensity. Bipolar mechanism. A mechanism, the response of which has two mutually exclusive types of out- put that depend on the balance between its two opposing inputs. Its response is nulled when its two inputs are balanced. Brightness. A perceptual measure of the apparent intensity of lights. Distinct from luminance in the sense that lights that appear equally bright are not necessarily of equal luminance. Cardinal directions. Stimulus directions in a three-dimensional color space that silence two of the three “cardinal mechanisms.” These are the isolating directions for the L+M, L–M, and S–(L+M) mech- anisms. Note that the isolating directions do not necessarily correspond to mechanism directions. Cardinal mechanisms. The second-site bipolar L–M and S–(L+M) chromatic mechanisms and the L+M luminance mechanism. Chromatic discrimination. Discrimination of a chromatic target from another target or back- ground, typically measured at equiluminance. Chromatic mechanism. Hypothetical psychophysical mechanisms that respond to chromatic stimuli, that is, to stimuli modulated at equiluminance. Color appearance. Subjective appearance of the hue, brightness, and saturation of objects or lights. -

The Use of Ochre and Painting During the Upper Paleolithic of the Swabian Jura in the Context of the Development of Ochre Use in Africa and Europe

Conard The Use of Ochre and Painting During the Upper Paleolithic of the Swabian Jura in the Context of the Development of Ochre Use in Africa and Europe https://doi.org/10.1515/opar-2018-0012 Received June 8, 2017; accepted December 13, 2017 Abstract: While the earliest evidence for ochre use is very sparse, the habitual use of ochre by hominins appeared about 140,000 years ago and accompanied them ever since. Here, we present an overview of archaeological sites in southwestern Germany, which yielded remains of ochre. We focus on the artifacts belonging exclusively to anatomically modern humans who were the inhabitants of the cave sites in the Swabian Jura during the Upper Paleolithic. The painted limestones from the Magdalenian layers of Hohle Fels Cave are a particular focus. We present these artifacts in detail and argue that they represent the beginning of a tradition of painting in Central Europe. Keywords: ochre use, Middle Stone Age, Swabian Jura, Upper Paleolithic, Magdalenian painting 1 The Earliest Use of Ochre in the Homo Lineage Modern humans have three types of cone cells in the retina of the eye. These cells are a requirement for trichromatic vision and hence, a requirement for the perception of the color red. The capacity for trichromatic vision dates back about 35 million years, within our shared evolutionary lineage in the Catarrhini subdivision of the higher primates (Jacobs, 2013, 2015). Trichromatic vision may have evolved as a result of the benefits for recognizing ripe yellow, orange, and red fruits in front of a background of green foliage (Regan et al., Article note: This article is a part of Topical Issue on From Line to Colour: Social Context and Visual Communication of Prehistoric Art edited by Liliana Janik and Simon Kaner. -

Blood Red by Erik Flores Edited by Dave M
Blood Red By Erik Flores Edited by Dave M The sound of waves crashing against the shoreline slowly roused Red from unconsciousness. His vision was still blurry, his ears pulsating with a deafening ring. Every wave that slammed down felt like war drums pounding beside him. After a moment of lying on the sand, tried to sit up, only to have his body scream in agony as a burning pain shot through his arms, chest and back. He fell back against the sand, breathing heavily while staring up at the clear night sky: The moon was full, illuminating the canopy of stars with a grayish hue. Suddenly, and vividly, images of what had transpired just a couple of hours earlier engulfed his mind and vision: He was running down the shoreline as shouting voices and battle cries erupted behind him. Moments later, he was being pummeled by fists, boots and the flat of sword blades from every direction. After what seemed like an eternity, the beatings ceased at last, leaving him lying on his side in the sand. Red struggled to glance up at his attackers, even though most of them were shrouded in shadow. What he saw made his stomach lurch… and shattered his heart to splinters. Adria Dubh, Percy the Abjurer and Will Spellworthy were standing over him, as well as other members of the Twisted Claw. After a few seconds, all of them started to disperse except for Adria who lingered for one last agonizing moment. The next- and last- thing he remembered was the swordmistress raising her boot and slamming it down on his head. -

It shimmers like an art display in its own right, facing in towards Foreword the glass central courtyard in Renzo Piano’s wonderful 2014 extension to the Harvard Art Museums. The collection seems, somehow, suspended within the sky. From the public galleries it is tantalising, almost intoxicating, to see the glass-fronted cases full of their bright bottles up there in the administra- tive area of the museum. The shelves are arranged mostly by hue; the blues are graded in ombre effect from deepest midnight to the fading in- digo of favourite jeans, with startling, pleasing juxtapositions of turquoise (flasks of lightest green malachite; summer sky-coloured copper carbon- ate and swimming pool verdigris) next to navy, next to something that was once blue and is now simply, chalk. A few feet along, the bright alizarin crimsons slake to brownish brazil wood upon one side, and blush to madder pink the other. This curious chromatic ordering makes the whole collection look like an installation exploring the very nature of painting. -

4 Colour Words in English and Italian
Connotative meaning in English and Italian Colour-Word Metaphors Gill Philip, Bologna ([email protected]) Abstract Colour words are loaded with attributive, connotative meanings, many of which are realised in conventional linguistic expressions such as to feel blue, to be in the pink, and to see red. The use of such phrases on an everyday basis reinforces the currency of the connotative meanings which they assume in particular cultural and linguistic settings, and the phrases themselves are often cited as evidence of the existence of colours’ connotative meanings. But how do the colour words in conventional linguistic expressions relate to the multitude of symbolic meanings that colours (in general) are said to represent? Based on data extracted from general reference corpora as well as traditional reference works, this article examines the use of colour-word metaphors in English and Italian. It pays particular attention to the ways in which colour words take on connotative meanings, how the meanings are fixed linguistically, and similarities and differences across the two languages under examination. Farbbezeichnungen enthalten viele attributive und konnotative Bedeutungen, wobei viele von ihnen in umgangssprachlichen Ausdrücken vorkommen, wie z.B. to feel blue, to be in the pink und to see red. Die Verwendung derartiger Ausdrücke im alltäglichen Umgang trägt zur weiteren Verbreitung der konnotativen Bedeutungen innerhalb eines bestimmten kulturellen und sprachlichen Umfeldes bei, und die Ausdrücke selber werden oft als Beweis für den offensichtlichen konnotativen Aspekt der Farbbegriffe angeführt. In welchem Verhältnis stehen aber die konventionellen Ausdrücke zur großen Anzahl symbolischer Bedeutungen, die doch Farben (im Allgemeinen) darstellen sollen? Ausgehend von Resultaten allgemeiner reference corpora wie auch herkömmlicher Studien wird hier der Umgang mit Farbbezeichnungsmetaphern (idiomatische Ausdrücke) im Englischen und Italienischen untersucht.
