Download or read book Color and Light written by James Gurney and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike many other art books only give recipes for mixing colors or describe step-by-step painting techniques, *Color and Light* answers the questions that realist painters continually ask, such as: "What happens with sky colors at sunset?", "How do colors change with distance?", and "What makes a form look three-dimensional?" Author James Gurney draws on his experience as a plain-air painter and science illustrator to share a wealth of information about the realist painter's most fundamental tools: color and light. He bridges the gap between abstract theory and practical knowledge for traditional and digital artists of all levels of experience.

This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majority of crimes occur during the hours of darkness, and fully two-thirds of all shooting incidents in which police officers on duty are killed take place during hours of diminished light. The goal of this unique book is to increase officers' awareness that training in low-light and no-light conditions is necessary in order for them to prevail in such situations, to help facilitate correct decision making under these conditions, and to help them understand the use of a myriad of illumination tools available for professional use today. Major topics include: (1) dim-light and no-light doctrine, including navigation techniques, threat location, threat acquisition, and threat identification; (2) flashlight doctrine, including many examples of engaging a threat using a flashlight; (3) low-light weapon sighting systems; (4) techniques used for signalling during dim-light and no-light conditions; and (5) illumination technologies supporting tactical and emergency operations, including infrared systems, thermal imagers, night vision systems, strobe lights, and lasers. Through the use of the techniques described throughout this unique and comprehensive book, the skill, professionalism, and ability of police officers to operate and survive in dim-light, no-light, and artificial light conditions will be enhanced

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perfect for personal study and for all types of faith formation groups, The Lumen Fidei (Light of Faith) Study Guide is the first available resource of its kind. All Catholics will benefit from its rich commentary, reflection questions, and ideas for living more fully by the “light of faith.” This study guide is the essential companion to Lumen Fidei, Pope Francis’s first encyclical, which was published in July of 2013. Jared Dees—author and seasoned religion teacher—leverages his expertise in education and theology to welcome Catholics into encyclicals in general and this one in particular—which Pope Francis called the “work of four hands” since it completes work started by Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. Dees presents summaries of each section of the encyclical, in-depth commentary, reflection questions, a glossary of key terms, and suggestions for integrating the encyclical into personal or community spiritual life. Additionally, there are appendices that address Lumen Fidei for pastors, leaders of adult faith formation and RCIA, catechists, teachers, and families.
