101 Oil Studies, No. 29
Objective: Test hue, chroma, values for major elements of subsequent painting.
Painted in 3 sessions: 26-29 June 2024
Pigments (all Winsor & Newton Artists' oil colour): Indigo, ivory black, Winsor violet, sap green, yellow ochre, cadmium lemon, cadmium yellow, Naples yellow, naples yellow light, burnt umber, transparent earth red (Gamblin artist), cadmium red, warm grey (Rembrandt artist), permalba white (Weber), unbleached titanium (Richeson Shiva). Medium: Linseed oil.
Jack Richeson & Company premium gesso panel
22.9 x 30.5 (9 x 12 inches)
Process: This tries out a poster study concept introduced to me in a workshop by M. Tobias Hall at the New Mexico Art League studio. It tests out the look of broad areas of hue, chroma, and values.
After Action Evaluation: (1) If anything, I was too detailed and took two painting sessions (after application of wash to the panel), instead of one short session. (2) This is as much a paint mixing process as a painting process. (3) Specifically, this identifiec a sun color that really didn't work.
Innovations in production, such as 3D imagery are upping the entertainment value – and price tag – in blockbuster movie production. And while moviemakers wrestle with new cost structures for major motion pictures, digital media promotion and distribution channels are changing long-held views on the movie industry’s business models.
1) What are the new production technologies that are impacting entertainment value of films? How will these trends reshape movie budgets?
2) How is the globalization and digitalization of movie distribution together reorienting the power structure of the film industry?
3) How will convergence of home entertainment media reshape the way we view media in the coming decade?

In our office, we have been discussing the values of the office for the past several months. We were asked to make a diagram about values. I decided to compare my personal values to those of the offices.
My values are the yellow ones. The offices's values are the blue ones. Where those values overlap, the value is in green. The size of the circle is determined by how much the value is worth. The circles around the values are assessments of where i think the values should be.
All in all, i think that this diagram shows how lucky i am to have a job that encompasses so many of my values.
The NHS Values Summit brings together a diverse range of people and perspectives to create a greater understanding of how people’s differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
It challenges and inspires people to think about the role of ethical leadership in improving the health and wellbeing of local communities, staff and patients and how the NHS can increase the social value of its activities.
Welcoming representatives from health and social care, alongside more than 20 partners from the voluntary and community sector, this event (in Leeds, Yorkshire) was a template for future NHS Values Summits, which will be held twice a year in different locations across the country. Each event will explore a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights. The next gathering will take place in May 2013.
In the quiet dignity of a study steeped in tradition, a British officer observes as young minds engage with lessons of discipline and character. The scene is more than a moment of education; it is a passage of values from one generation to the next. The officer’s composed presence symbolizes leadership, while the boys’ Scout uniforms reflect the importance of honor, camaraderie, and learning. This is the essence of a legacy—built not just in achievements, but in the character and wisdom imparted to those who follow.
John Edwards was born in Seneca, South Carolina and raised in Robbins, North Carolina, a small town in the Piedmont. There John learned the values of hard work and perseverance from his father, Wallace, who worked in the textile mills for 36 years, and from his mother, Bobbie, who ran a shop and worked at the post office. Working alongside his father at the mill, John developed his strong belief that all Americans deserve an equal opportunity to succeed and be heard.
A proud product of public schools, John became the first person in his family to attend college. He worked his way through North Carolina State University where he graduated with high honors in 1974, and then earned a law degree with honors in 1977 from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
For the next 20 years, John dedicated his career to representing families and children just like the families he grew up with in Robbins. Standing up against the powerful insurance industry and their armies of lawyers, John helped these families through the darkest moments of their lives to overcome tremendous challenges. His passionate advocacy for people like the folks who worked in the mill with his father earned him respect and recognition across the country.
In 1998, John took this commitment into politics to give a voice in the United States Senate to the people he had represented throughout his career. He ran for the Senate and won, defeating an incumbent Senator.
In Congress, Senator Edwards quickly emerged as a champion for the issues that make a difference to American families: quality health care, better schools, protecting civil liberties, preserving the environment, saving Social Security and Medicare, and reforming the ways campaigns are financed.
As a member of the Select Committee on Intelligence, Senator Edwards worked tirelessly for a strong national defense and to strengthen the security of our homeland. He authored key pieces of legislation on cyber, bio, and port security.
Senator Edwards brought a positive message of change to the 2004 presidential primaries. During the primary season he spoke about the two Americas that exist in our country today: one for people at the top who have everything they need and one for everybody else who struggle to get by. This powerful message resonated with voters all across America.
After the Democratic primaries, Senator John Kerry picked Senator Edwards to serve as his running mate in the 2004 general election, and Senator Edwards crisscrossed the country and campaigned tirelessly on Senator Kerry's behalf.
He is the former Director of the Center on Poverty, Work, and Opportunity at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Senator Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth, whom he met when both were law students at Chapel Hill, were married in 1977. They have had four children, including: their eldest daughter, Catharine, who is attending law school; nine-year-old Emma Claire; and a seven-year-old son, Jack. Their first child, Wade, died in 1996.
June 2011 is the 3rd Annual Pagan Values Blogging Month, a great project that aims to get pagans of all stripes to be both thoughtful and vocal about the things they care most about. My personal value s are inspired and informed by my dual identity as both pagan and Quaker. I see the core of my values as a two sided coin with relationships on one side and self actualization on the other. The interaction of these two forces creates a motion that we physical beings live within, a motion and a force that does the work of building, rebuilding and healing our world.

A handful of coins reveal various sizes, shapes, and metals. Some are new and shiny, some are old and dirty; most are from the USA, at least one is not; most have little value, but all add up to be an important basis for our financial and trading system. So, these coins are more than concrete objects, serving as tools for exchange and measurement. I think there's a parallel in there somewhere with learning and education, but my brain power is only at 'penny' capacity right now, so will continue to ponder....Naples, FL

Agriculture is the main stay of Uganda’s economy, however, the share of agriculture in the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been declining steadily. In fiscal year 2009/10, agriculture contributed only 14.6% to the national GDP of which 1.3% was attributed to the livestock sub-sector. The dairy industry is estimated to contribute more than 50% of the total output from the livestock sub-sector. The dairy industry employs many people who are engaged in various economic activities along the dairy value chain, particularly in milk production, collection, bulking and transportation, processing, distribution and marketing as well as provision of inputs and support services.

WIT: I value furnaces and homes that keep us warm. Although the calendar says Autumn, winter has arrived where I live. I took this picture out the spare room window as the sun came up this past week. In PP, very little. Minor adjustments in RAW conversion, removed light standard and slight crop.

Perspective Is Everything

Sleight Of Mind Set
What Materials Do You Get?
Book Your Place
Hi,
Perspective is Everything is a talk by Rory Sutherland see link below, his theme is that psychological value is one of the most important areas of value. The Sleight of Mind Set Workshops pick up on these ideas, they are one day workshops all about learning, understanding and applying Mind Magic (Mentalism) and Psychological Artistry to what you do. The SMS day is about adding psychological value to you. For more information on this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
Perspective is Everything - Adding Psychological Value
In Perspective Is Everything, ad-man Rory Sutherland gives us an interesting and entertaining take on the themes of Psychological Artistry. (Please be aware, there is strong language in this video from the beginning) Please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/#Perspective and let me know what you think. In summary, he says;
Things are not what they are; they are what we think they are
Things are also what we compare them to
Psychological value is the best kind of value
Value is composed of three parts Technological, Economic and Psychological
This whole idea of adding psychological value to what you do is the chief aim of Psychological Artistry ; combining psychological solutions and approaches with ideas to your delivery. The focus of the Sleight of Mind Set workshop is to add psychological value to your delivery.
Maya Angelou: I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Being an effective communicator has very little to do with what you have to say, and everything to do with what people say about you. Psychological Artistry, the Sleight of Mind Set workshop and the SNT kit provokes you into becoming the talking point of a conversation. It's impossible to escape the force of impact that floating a note with your bear hands gives you when united with your compelling message.
By using the right techniques, anyone can:
Capture and maintain attention
Become more engaging
Demonstrate psychological value
Create meaningful interactions
Are you looking to learn something different that you can use in your delivery? Are you also looking for that rare thing that's new, engaging and makes you stand out? On the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, we will give you the tools, ideas and materials that capture the scarcest resource we have in today's world: attention.
Psychological Artistry - Perception and Insight
A fascinating example of perspective and insight is shown in a well-known Fred Astaire clip, click here to see it. Perspectives determine how we:
View and interpret our experiences
Make decisions
Filter our insights
Govern our assumptions
Act and behave
It is this unseen primary influence that magicians know and understand and use very well.
Interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or go to mindsways.com/SMS. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry.
Out Style Of Delivery: Edutrainment
Over the past 2 years, I have noticed a significant and fascinating new movement in the worlds of mentoring, training, teaching, consulting, coaching, management, therapy and many other areas. In all of these fields, the ability to work on a face-to-face basis and include Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry dramatically increases interest in you and your message, as well as your skill set, reputation and sales figures. To see some of the many success stories, please see here. It is this philosophy and principle that the Sleight of Mind Set workshop is based on, and it's this that makes you:
Stand Out
Grab and Hold Attention
Be More Interesting
Help Others
Engage More
As well as learning the effects, you can also learn valuable lessons from mind magic about how we think, act and behave. Mind Magic, as well as being entertaining and fascinating, can also be used to illustrate and understand human nature and our psychology. Using Psychological Artistry in your delivery adds both the spice of excitement and taps into this enduring popularity of magic and psychology. To see what others have said, please go to mindsways.com/about/what-people-say
The Sleight of Mind Set Workshop is about you tapping into the enduring popularity of magic and mystery by combining the ingenuity shown by Derren Brown and Dynamo with the popularity and interest evidenced by Amazon's "Most Popular Tags". For more information on this, see www.mindsways.com/SMS
