Readers will learn to create decorated and illustrated envelopes, faux postage and artistamps, find penpals, make a mail art kit, and much more!

Download or read book A Primer of Art written by John Collier and published by Theclassics.Us. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1882 edition. Excerpt: ...mixtures of coloured lights--by scarlet and bluish-green, by greenish-yellow and violet, by yellow and ultramarine, by red, green and violet, or finally by a mixture of all the colours of the rainbow. All these mixtures produce precisely the same impression on the eye, but in no other respect are they alike. For instance, a surface lighted up by scarlet and bluish-green light will come out black in a photograph, whereas another lighted up by greenishyellow and ultramarine will come out very light. To the eye they would both look equally white. In fact there is no resemblance between the physical properties of these various mixtures of light. They agree in producing the sensation of white, but in nothing else. According to Young's theory the explanation of the puzzle is a very simple one. These various mixtures are alike in this--that they all excite all three of the nerve elements. For instance, in the first mixture the scarlet excites the red-seeing nerves, whilst the blue-green light excites the other two sets. In the second mixture the greenish-yellow excites the red and green-seeing nerves, whilst, of course, the violet light excites the violet-seeing ones. And so on throughout the series. It may startle those who are only accustomed to the mixture of pigments to hear that blue and yellow light do not produce green but white. That this is so can be readily proved by the experiment mentioned above. But why do blue and yellow paint produce green? It is a question, as we have mentioned before, of the subtraction of colours, not of their addition. The blue paint absorbs most of the red, orange and yellow waves, reflecting back to the eye the green, blue and violet, the result of which is a general impression of blue. Now take a yellow...

Download or read book The Art and Science of Compassion a Primer written by Agnes M. F. Wong and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-12-23 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Art And Science Of Compassion. A Primer is designed as a short, "all-in-one", introductory text that covers the full gamut of compassion, from the evolutional, biological, behavioural, and psychological, to the social, philosophical, and spiritual. Written with busy trainees, clinicians, and educators in mind, it aims to address the following questions: What is compassion? Is it innate or a trainable skill? What do different scientific disciplines, including neuroscience, tell us about compassion? Why is "compassion fatigue" a misnomer? What are the obstacles to compassion? Why are burnout, moral suffering, and bullying so rampant in healthcare? And finally, what does it take to cultivate compassion? Drawing on her diverse background as a clinician, scientist, educator, and chaplain, Dr. Wong presents a wealth of scientific evidence supporting that compassion is both innate and trainable. By interleaving personal experiences and reflections, she shares her insights on what it takes to cultivate compassion to support the art of medicine and caregiving. The training described draws on both contemplative and scientific disciplines to help clinicians develop cognitive, attentional, affective, and somatic skills that are critical for the cultivation of compassion. Compassion not only benefits the recipients, produces better patient care, and improves the healthcare system, it is also a boundless source of energy, resilience, and wellness for the givers. With striking illustrations for key concepts and a concise summary for each chapter, this book provides a solid conceptual framework and practical approaches to cultivate compassion. It serves to complement the experiential component of compassion that the readers are strongly encouraged to develop and practise in their daily lives"--

Download or read book A Primer on Arts Integration written by Christian Z. Goering and published by IAP. This book was released on 2023-07-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection provides middle and high school classroom teachers of English language arts, social studies, and other disciplines the inspiration and insight necessary to utilize an arts integration approach in their teaching. Whether you want your students to create documentaries, maps, mixed media, songs, quilts, dances, masks, or a remix of multiple art forms, the point of school can and should be more about how students create their own meaning in powerful ways and harness their creativity for social good. Arts integration is one approach demonstrated to be invaluable in these terms, moving teachers and students into a mindset of ‘what can we create today?’, sure to inject energy into classrooms, learning, and lives. ENDORSEMENTS: "Arts-Integrated theory and practice create a beautiful dance, are quilted together, and even recite a theatrical monologue in this book that takes arts integration in multiple forms and puts it into terms that work for the busy classroom teacher. Written by classroom teachers, passion and professionalism are evident in each chapter as the strategies and stories about them unfold to provide a platform for teachers to grow in their practice and to create vibrant classrooms along the way." — Sean Layne, Focus 5, Inc. "For all of us working in the arts, arts integration is a term that gets thrown around with many competing definitions. The authors have taken all that and made it practical and useful for this generation of learners. This book has the special sauce for making arts integration relevant to student learning and encouraging creativity though practical examples that can and will inspire you to try them out. After reading this book you will want to sing, dance, draw, and make art in your classroom or museum." — Zev Slurzberg, The Metropolitan Museum of Art
