Medical Illustration PLME 0400 Drawing 4 Colors and Shades of Gray Introduction to Medical Illustration PLME 0400 Drawing 4 Colors and Shades of gray Light and dark: Value Structure • How does value relate to light and form? Specular highlight (reflex) Intermediate (halftone) Core dark Ambient shadow Cast shadow Penumbra Reflected light Value Structure 1. How does value relate to light and form (value structure: “how gray is it?”) 2. How does value relate to local color (Hue/Value/Chroma) Color • Three factors: – Hue: What color is it? (red, purple, magenta, green) – Chroma: How intense is the color (how green) – Value: How light or how dark is the color • Shade: color + black • Tint: color + white Color • Three factors: – Hue: color temperature –warm v. cold – Chroma is almost the same as saturation – Value is similar to grayscale: how dark is it? Color • Three factors: – Hue: color temperature –warm v. cold – Chroma is almost the same as saturation – Value is similar to grayscale: how dark is it? Color • Three factors: – Hue: color temperature –warm v. cold – Chroma is almost the same as saturation – Value is similar to grayscale: how dark is it? Light and dark: Value Structure • When making a sketch: – Think about contrasts – Don’t be afraid to over‐emphasize – Practice “your 6 grays” – Equivalent to the value of colors? Color v. Grayscale • Not all colors are created equal • At its highest chroma (saturation), – Purple is the darkest color (highest value) – Yellow is the lightest color (lowest value) • A “really purply” purple is very dark • A “really yellowy” yellow is very light Color v. Grayscale • Not all colors are created equal – Doppler effect • Sound waves reflecting off moving objects change frequency • Shorter if object moves toward transducer • Longer if object moves away from transducer Color v. Grayscale • Not all colors are created equal – Doppler effect in ultrasound: Conventions • Blood flow is coming toward observer = artery = red • Blood flow going away from observer = vein = blue – However: Red and blue have different values Color v. Grayscale • Not all colors are created equal – Doppler effect in ultrasound: Conventions • Adding yellow/orange in one direction and (light) green and blue in the other compensates for the different values of natural red and blue Color v. Grayscale • Heat maps (over/underexpression of genes) – LEFT: green is brighter than red. – RIGHT: blue and red have the same value Color v. Grayscale • Heat maps (over/underexpression of genes) – When translated to gray scale, the lighter green contrasts with the darker red (L) Color is subjective Color is subjective A little color is great No color hierarchy: What are we supposed to focus on?? 5 4.5 4 3.5 3 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 Group 1Group 2 Drug A Drug B Drug C Drug D Drug E A little color is great Emphasis on what happens with Drug A (red) 5 4.5 4 3.5 3 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 Group 1Group 2 Drug A Drug B Drug C Drug D Drug E A little color is great Emphasis on what happens with Drug A (red) 5 4.5 4 3.5 3 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 Group 1Group 2 Drug A Drug B Drug C Drug D Drug E A little color is great Emphasis on what happens with Drug E (blue) 5 4.5 4 3.5 3 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 Group 1Group 2 Drug A Drug B Drug C Drug D Drug E A little color is great • Use color schemes – Complementary colors • Primary (red, blue, yellow) • Secondary: combo of the other 2 (green, orange, purple) – Presence of one makes the other stand out A little color is great • Use color themes – Notice the “odd one out” A little color is great • Use color moods – Warm and cold colors Frank Deng, Ann Int Med 2020 A little color is great • Color conventions – Red cross – Blue mood – Green bile A little color is great • Color conventions – Red = artery (but not always*) – Blue = vein (but not always*) – Yellow = nerve A little color is great • Color conventions – Red = artery (but not always*) – Blue = vein (but not always*) Artery: blood from the heart to the periphery – pulmonary artery brings O2‐poor blood to the lungs Vein: blood to from the periphery to the heart – pulmonary vein brings O2‐ rich blood to the heart Arteries v.

  • Marianne Times Column
    Portrait of the Artist: Marianne F. Buckley Curran By Theresa Brown “Portrait of the Artist” is a bi-weekly series introducing Hull Artists to the community by asking each artist to answer 10 questions that will give you a glimpse into their world. Marianne Buckley-Curran’s connection with Hull Artists goes back to its early founding years and the seasonal “Studio at the Beach” in the old MDC garage in the late ‘90s. Like many other Hull Artists, some of her earliest memories are of creative activities and a connection to an artistic family member. In her case a grandfather, who was a Lighthouse Keeper, sign painter, and artist, taught Marianne how to properly use an oil paint brush as a small child. Although art making continued to be an important part of Marianne’s life, practicality and natural athleticism led her to pursue a college degree and career in Physical Education. While taking a break from teaching to raise her family, Marianne was able to link her knowledge and love of art to a part time entrepreneurial venture as an artist agent. She arranged exhibition of works by other artists in area businesses as well as organized and operated local art shows. ****( my strategy was to learn the business of art while I was developing my own artistic vision ) Always surrounded by the artistry of others, Buckley-Curran began to question why she wasn’t exhibiting her own work and started entering her paintings in juried shows. Success in these shows encouraged her to refocus on making art and to study with local painter John Kilroy.

  • Regionalism and Local Color Fiction in Nineteenth-Century Us Literature
    Filologia y Lingiiistica XXVII(2): 141-153, 2001 THE POLITICS OF PLACE: REGIONALISM AND LOCAL COLOR FICTION IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY U.S. LITERATURE Kari Meyers Skredsvig RESUMEN Este articulo es el primero de una serie dedicada a las relaciones entre autoria femenina y la noci6n de lugar/espacio en la literatura estadounidense. Se presenta un panorama general a fin de contextualizar el regionalismo y el localismo como movimientos literarios y como subgdneros literarios en el desanollo de la literatura estadounidense del siglo diecinueve, mediante el andlisis de los contextos hist6ricos, sociales, politicos y literarios que inicialmente propiciaron estas dos tendencias literarias y posteriormente influyeron en su desapariciSn. Tambidn se examina el contenido cultural y aporte literario de estas etiquetas, asi como la posibilidad de intercambiarlas. ABSTRACT This is the first in a series of articles dealing with the interrelationships of female authorship and space/place in U.S. literature. This article provides an overview for contextualizing regionalism and local color both as literary movements and as literary subgenres in the development of nineteenth-century U.S. literature by exploring the historical, social, political, and literary environments which initially propitiated and later influenced the demise of these two literary tendencies. It also examines the cultural and literary import of these labels, as well as their possible interchangeability. Place and space are components of human reality at its most fundamental level. InThe Poetics of Space, Gaston Bachelard affirms that our home is "our first universe, a real cosmos in every sense of the word" (1994:4). We construct a personal identity not only for and within ourselves, but inevitably grounded in our context, at the same time that the environment constmcts us.

Light isadditive. We perceive color in objects because those objects When two or more colored lights are mixed, a have a pigment which absorbes some light rays and lighter mixture results. White light results from reflects those we see. A yellow ball, for example, is combining all three primary colors of light at high perceived as yellow because its pigmentation reflects intensity. Light primaries are the secondary that color. Darker colors will absorb more light, colors of pigment.

Cover design by Jeff Belizaire ABOUT THIS BOOK Why does earlier Greek painting (Archaic/Classical) seem so clear and—deceptively— simple while the latest painting (Hellenistic/Graeco-Roman) is so much more complex but also familiar to us? Is there a single, coherent explanation that will cover this remarkable range? What can we recover from ancient documents and practices that can objectively be called “Greek color theory”? Present day historians of ancient art consistently conceive of color in terms of triads: red, yellow, blue or, less often, red, green, blue. This habitude derives ultimately from the color wheel invented by J.W. Goethe some two centuries ago. So familiar and useful is his system that it is only natural to judge the color orientation of the Greeks on its basis. To do so, however, assumes, consciously or not, that the color understanding of our age is the definitive paradigm for that subject.

  • Color Terms (PDF)
    Educational Material Glossary of Color Terms achromatic Having no color or hue; without identifiable hue. Most blacks, whites, grays, and browns are achromatic. advancing colors Colors that appear to come towards you (warm colors). analogous colors Closely related hues, especially those in which we can see a common hue; hues that are neighbors on the color wheel, such as blue, blue-green, and green. chroma The purity or degree of saturation of a color; relative absence of white or gray in a color. See intensity. color field painting A movement that grew out of Abstract Expressionism, in which large stained or painted areas or “fields of color” evoke aesthetic and emotional responses. color wheel A circular arrangement of contiguous spectral hues used in some color systems. Also called a color circle. complementary colors Two hues directly opposite one another on a color wheel (for example, red and green, yellow and purple) which, when mixed together in proper proportions, produce a neutral gray. These color combinations create the strongest possible contrast of color, and when placed close together, intensify the appearance of the other. The true complement of a color can be seen in its afterimage. cool colors Colors whose relative visual temperatures make them seem cool. Cool colors generally include green, blue-green, blue, blue-violet, and violet. The quality of warmness or coolness is relative to adjacent hues. See also warm colors. hue The pure state of any color or a pure pigment that has not had white or black added to it. intensity The relative purity or saturation of a hue (color), on a scale from bright (pure) to dull (mixed with another hue or a neutral.) Also called chroma.
