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 cute bedside book gives kids and young teens a safe space to record their feelings and monitor their moods every day in a fun and rewarding way. Each night before sleep, they simply colour in the relevant day's illustration and see it build over the month to create an accurate record of their changing emotional state. Therapists acknowledge that keeping a record of moods and emotions can help to identify triggers, see patterns, helping to develop emotional intelligence and - ultimately - control. Mood-tracking has become a much-loved activity for Bullet Journalling and even apps - this kid-friendly, mindful, analog approach will help them find balance, realising that there are good days and bad days and that's OK. Filled with a range of adorable graphics that are different every month, there's space quickly to record emotions, allowing comparisons day by day, month by month, year by year for a five-year period. If your young person has tried and failed to keep a diary or journal, this easy activity book offers a much more manageable and fun space to record what matters, giving them - and you - the insight into how they are really feeling. Illustrator Olive Yong (creator of the wildly popular Bichi Mao comic) has created exclusive art for this mood tracker that they will love to bring to life with their own colourful moods.

Color Psychology: Profit From The Psychology of Color: Discover the Meaning and Effect of ColorsThe book "Color Psychology" explains the different psychological effects that different colors have on the human mind. Color consultants believe that the colors used in the design of any object or environment (e.g. a website) can have a significant impact on the emotions and performance of people within that environment and that people respond, even at a psychological level, to colors. Based upon fundamentals in Color Psychology, with years of research by color psychologists, the characteristics of certain colors have been identified to cause an emotional response in people. This was done by studying the response from hundreds of thousands of test subjects around the world in order to isolate how certain colors make us feel. What You'll Learn: How Color Can Improve Your Bottom Line How Color Can Affect People's Emotions Which Colors Suit Your Target Market Which Are The "Magic" Colors Which Color makes Shoppers Spend More And Much, Much More... The effect that color has on human emotions can be profound. Researchers have studied the biological perception of color, the relationships between color and emotion, and how different colors can be used to affect mood and behavior in predictable ways. Although The Psychology of Color is a relatively new area of scientific research, ancient civilizations believed in the influence of color on humans; the ancient Chinese, Egyptians, and Indians believed in chromotherapy. The Future Use of The Psychology of Color...Case Study: With world-renowned Spanish chef, Ferran Adria, he focused on the color of the crockery. Guests sat down one side of a large table were given a pink strawberry dessert on a white plate. Down the other side of the table guests ate an identical dessert from a black plate. Those eating from the white plates rated the dessert as 10% sweeter than those who ate from the black plates. Subsequent experiments have shown that introducing a square or angular plate intensifies the difference, with roundness accentuating sweetness. "Clearly contextual perception is a big opportunity." Johannes Le Coutre, a perception physiologist with Nestle. Who is This Book For? Anyone interested in the influence of color will get something from this book. However, primarily I wrote this book as a guide for all Internet Business People, Marketers and Entrepreneurs because I think it's essential that we all understand the psychological influence of color.Changing the colors on your sales page or website won't suddenly bring in millions of dollars but there is no doubt that a change of color may well result in a change of mood in the viewer; it's how you use that power that can determine your profitability. The challenge for you as an Internet Business Person, Marketers or Entrepreneur is to understand the theories of color and to use them in a profitable but professional and ethical way.People Who Read This Book: "I was blown away by the information.
