The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Shelter Cove Arts and Recreation Foundation (SCARF) are pleased to announce the Spring 2024 session of the King Range National Conservation Area (King Range NCA) Artist in Residence (AiR) program. The residency will offer an inspirational and unique 4-weeks on California's remote Lost Coast for an artist to interpret public lands through art. |
|
Together, the BLM and SCARF provide an opportunity for artists to experience the Lost Coast while educating the community and showcasing their interpretations of the surrounding public lands. The AiR program is founded on the belief that artists look closely at the way the world works, notice things that others may have missed, challenge ideas, experiment, and create new opportunities to experience public lands through art. |

Deep Color: The Shades
|
by Keith Recker Color is a powerful force in our lives. It is a major influence in visual and verbal communication and on the decisions, we make every day. Deep Color unpacks all the shades of the rainbow (plus black, white, and pink) with little-known facts, stunning visuals, and a critical perspective on color and the nonverbal meanings it carries. Deep Color contains essays exploring the intriguing facets of color, such as imperial yellow in China or lapis lazuli in Egypt. Each hue is illustrated not just in words, but in historical and contemporary images that show how ancient ideas are still very much alive today--and also how color can take on new meanings. |
|
Destined to become a classic, Deep Color explores how color acts on our imagination, subconscious, and daily decisions. It helps readers unpack the color-laden stimuli that come their way every minute of every day. |
