What a fabulous experience! We were honored to have the awe-inspiring Carrie Di Costanzo for a workshop on the use of gouache in botanical art. First of all, Carrie's work is beyond exquisite — I suspect I was not alone in getting goosebumps while gazing at her originals. They are miraculous in their refinement and perfection. Although Carrie works her magic in other media such as egg tempera and watercolor as well, it is her masterful handling of gouache that we focused on for those wonderful three days.
We all had a choice of working on a large deodar cedar cone, kumquats on a branch, loquats on a branch, or tulips. One participant requested a cactus as a subject, and The Huntington very kindly supplied that subject as well.
Carrie demonstrated several ways of using gouache, as the medium is quite versatile. She showed her favored method of laying down a pale "wash" of her mixed paint that consisted of a highly controlled stippling using her amazingly fast feathery stroke of dilute gouache on a dry brush. Texture was instantiated from the start and retained throughout with this technique. Subsequent layers were laid down with generally successively more concentrated pigments with the occasional unifying dry brush wash over. She worked from light to dark in this method, somewhat reminiscent of watercolor.
She also demonstrated an approach using titanium white mixed to varying degrees into her colors to opacify and smooth the deposition of color and it had a depth and richness rivaling oils while retaining the luscious velvety matte surface of gouache. Indeed, in this approach, the handling is more like that of oils or acrylics and many renowned artists such as James Gurney use this method. [See some of James Gurney's favorite gouache artists here.] Lights do not necessarily need to be retained and working dark to light is possible. Highlights and light structures such as Melanie's cactus spines can be directly added on top.
Carrie showed us that gouache is like watercolor in re-solubility but has a higher pigment load, yielding greater opacity. It can be used in a watercolor way with wet, dilute translucent washes retaining the light of the paper, building up to a gorgeous matte depth of color. It can also, again, be used somewhat like oils or acrylics, with light pigments over dark. This allows for going over sections with many layers until one is satisfied, without harming the surface or looking overworked. Thus, you can push a painting further. One can also use gouache to exquisite effect on toned papers, like botanical artist Albert R. Valentien did. Carrie showed us how she creates a toned sheet for such an approach.
Carrie encouraged us to use the method that we felt most comfortable with and everyone had their own unique look to their paintings, and all were lovely. The medium was adaptable to each person's individual style of painting.
A Little About Gouache:
Gouache has a history that goes back to the 9th Century. Illuminated manuscripts and Persian and Mughal miniatures were painted using opaque watercolors mixed with white or on white priming. Chinese white was also freely used in Western watercolors in the nineteenth century as "body colors", distinguished by their beautiful precision (see, for example, the watercolor and body color work of William Trost Richards). For many subjects, such as landscapes, body color made it possible.
Zinc white (Chinese white) as a pigment had become available in Europe in the mid-19th century (although in use in Persia, India and China since at least the 12th century) and thus at least partially displaced the more opaque but very toxic lead white. It is no wonder that artists happily explored the possibilities of this new pigment! (Especially en plein air, once pigments were packed into tubes.) We are lucky to have access to nontoxic, very opaque titanium white (introduced 1921) as well as zinc white.
Gouache was favored by commercial artists during the twentieth century for its beauty, speed of drying, and matte surface which the camera loves — it is renowned for reproducing extremely well. It got a bit of a bad rap because of the fugitive quality of many of the paints then in use — pieces were made for the camera rather than the frame, so archival lightfast pigments were not always employed. Now, however, we have beautiful, fully lightfast gouache pigments available to us from numerous pigmenters. Also, the medium suffered some stigma in the pretentious "Fine Art" vs "illustration" controversy.
Technical instruction in gouache has become very difficult to come by over the last few decades, so I cherish the training we were so fortunate to obtain with a Master Artist like Carrie. I personally have longed for this type and quality of didactics for nearly half a century. Opacity is another dimension of control which enhances the ability to work the magic of mimesis.
Profound thanks to Carrie Di Costanzo, a real treasure both artistically and as a person, to the Education Committee for bringing her, to The Huntington for hosting us, to Patricia Mark for supplying subjects and to BAGSC for everything!

BAGSC gathered at the Madrona Marsh Nature Preserve in Torrance for the January meeting to feature the ongoing mural project of BAGSC member Estelle DeRidder.
The interior of the meeting room walls in the Madrona Marsh Interpretive Center have been filled with Estelle's paintings of the plants, animals and insects found in Marsh. She has spent countless hours capturing each plant in its native environment. The meeting was highlighted by featuring Estelle as our guest speaker, adding her wit and wisdom in starting and continuing this ambitious project. In addition to discussing her process and goals, Estelle also spoke about the challenges of creating such a large work, including determining scale, practical techniques, and interesting visitors (of the human, insect and avian varieties).
Estelle was recently honored by the Cultural Arts Commission in Torrance for her work on this mural. [See BAGSC News blog article about the award here.] The Marsh staff and volunteers from the Friends of the Marsh group were also present to support Estelle, a true indication of how much she is respected and admired. A video was made to highlight Estelle's mural project for the Cultural Arts Awards ceremony and we were fortunate to view it. It has now been posted on YouTube so members unable to attend the meeting can enjoy it, and can be found here: https://youtu.be/zExN3JWTcMY
Our sincere thanks go out to Estelle for bringing BAGSC to the attention of Madrona Marsh. Estelle's mural can be viewed in the Interpretive Center, Tuesday through Sunday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Additional thanks goes to Tracy Drake, Park Services Manager, Community Services Department, City of Torrance; Hilary and Dave Jamieson; and, Lance Hill for his wonderful photographs of the meeting.
The Marsh is located at: 3201 Plaza del Amo, Torrance, CA 90503.

I recently had a wonderful opportunity to teach a workshop during the California Native Plant Society 2018 Conference that was held at the LAX Marriott Hotel in early February. The attendees at the conference were from all over California. They are a very energetic, enthusiastic and passionate group of people who are committed to protecting the plants and open spaces in our state. Since I live in an area of Los Angeles where many residents are also committed to protecting natural areas and encouraging the cultivation of native plants. I was looking forward to teaching at this venue and thought that a workshop that would be an Introduction to Botanical Art would be well received by this group and I was right.
It is always fun to share an appreciation and love for a subject with those who are attending my class. In this case, it was my love for Botanical Art. This class was intended to introduce botanical art to those who were interested and wanted to know and do more.
The class started with an introduction to the materials used to create this art. Class attendees received a list of recommended books to inspire and to give step by step drawing exercises to begin the process. Workshop attendees did exercises to learn how to shade with graphite to create a value scale which would be preparation for creating three dimensional forms using light to dark shading.
The next portion of the class was focused on line drawing and some of what this entails. We did drawing warm up exercises then contour drawing. I wanted those attending the class to have as much "hands on" experience with drawing, as possible. They were shown how to use the plexiglass view finder, also called the "Leonardo Frame" as a drawing aide.
Next, the group learned about how establishing a light source can be very important in the shading of their drawing. I showed them how to establish a source of light coming from the left and how it would hit the object that the artist is shading. Those in the class shaded a sphere and a cylinder. After doing this shading, the information about shading was applied to shading a branch and some berries.
Seeing as the class members were all fans of our California native plants, this was a great opportunity to to have them shade Toyon branches with some leaves and berries applying the concept of light coming from the left.
The class members did remarkably well with this drawing and shading exercise and to my delight seemed keenly interested in learning how to do more in the future.

The Botanical Center at The Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens, is the location for the BAGSC exhibition '"Portraits of Bonsai from The Huntington Collection." The paintings received many admiring comments from the public and participants at The Huntington's Bonsai-a-Thon held the weekend of February 24 – 25, 2018.
Demonstrations during the two-day event were given by Olga Ryabtsova, Mitsuko Schultz and Tania Norris. The questions and comments from the viewers were many and varied. They ranged from 'how do you?', 'I could never do that', 'are they for sale?' and 'where do I find classes?' etc. People were really interested and appreciative of our participation.
The wonderful and patient Bonsai master, Ted Matson, gave a long plug for BAGSC before he started the auction of bonsai for the attendees. He mentioned how BAGSC members had come weekly to paint The Huntington Collection. Ted also mentioned the upcoming ASBA "Out of the Woods" art show at the Brody Center (May 18, 2018 to August 27, 2018) and was most complimentary about the BAGSC paintings.
It was also wonderful to see many BAGSC members attending the event. A few additional BAGSC demonstrators or BAGSC members who could answer questions would have been appreciated. Don't be shy — all levels of expertise are appreciated at our outreach events, and seasoned BAGSC participants are always on hand to lend a hand.
Thank you to Ted Matson and The Huntington for this wonderful opportunity; and kudos to all BAGSC papticipants!

The Third New York Botanical Garden Triennial, Out of the Woods: Celebrating Trees in Public Gardens is on display at the The New York Botanical Garden, in Bronx, New York from November 18, 2017 – April 22, 2018. Information about the exhibition, including images of all the artworks is on the ASBA website.
Forty-four artworks were selected from more than two hundred submissions, depicting one of the planet's most important and beautiful resources: trees. Each of these subjects have been found in botanical gardens and arboreta throughout the United States and around the world.
Artists have been working on this project for the past three years, not only capturing images of trees, but also drawing attention to the institutions that shelter them: botanical gardens and arboreta. A central goal of the exhibition is to highlight the role of botanical gardens and arboreta in the research/scholarship they provide, as well as their education and outreach to the public.
The artists respond aesthetically to these inspiring subjects, and have depicted everything from seedpods to branches and bark to an entire forest floor. Each artist has written a statement about their artwork; artists' statements can be read on the ASBA website.
Jurors for the exhibition were:
- Joanna Groarke, Director of Public Engagement and Library Exhibitions Curator, The New York Botanical Garden
- Todd Forrest, Arthur Ross VP for Horticulture and Living Collections, The New York Botanical Garden
- Robin A. Jess, Past Executive Director, ASBA
- Barbara Macklowe, Photographer, former Principal, Macklowe Gallery
Congratulations go to all artists participating, including BAGSC artists Akiko Enokido, Deborah Friedman, Asuka Hishiki, Olga Ryabtsova, and Mitsuko Schultz.

The City of Torrance Cultural Arts Commission awarded Estelle DeRidder an Excellence in Arts Award on October 21, 2017, in Visual Arts & Design for her extraordinary work in botanical art for the Madrona Marsh and for bringing-the-outdoors-in with her murals on the walls of the city's Madrona Marsh Interpretive Center.
Each year the City honors individuals Excellence in Arts Awards in four categories: Dance, Music, Visual Arts & Design, Drama & Theater Arts. Two memorial awards are given as well, named in honor of two distinguished citizens: the Dr. Tom Rische Arts Education Award and the (former Mayor) Katy Geissert Award.
BAGSC members Teri Kuwahara, Kathlyn (Kat) Powell, Janice Sharp, Beth Stone, and Leslie Walker, and Estelle's family were on hand to see Estelle accept the award. The City put together a beautiful video about Estelle and the mural project at the Madrona Marsh Nature Preserve. The video was beautifully done and very impressive. BAGSC is planning to show it at our BAGSC Holiday Party on December 9 if possible, so members who weren't able to attend the ceremony can see it.
After the awards presentation, Kat, Janice and Beth went over to Madrona Marsh to see the progress on Estelle's mural. (Click on the images below to see them enlarged.)
Estelle was awarded a grant from ASBA in 2012 for her Madrona Marsh project. At the 2017 ASBA Conference in San Francisco this past October, ASBA Grants Committee Chairperson Myra Sourkes opened the Grants Presentation with a presentation of Estelle's work and her accomplishments, with a hearty congratulations from all ASBA members in attendance.
And more Madrona Marsh coverage to come!
Unfortunately, Estelle won't be able to join us at the BAGSC Holiday Party: a local television station will be interviewing her about the mural on Saturday, December 9. We will find out when the interview will be aired and on which station as soon as possible, and let everyone know.

Congratulations, and well-deserved Estelle!

Martin Allen's Techniques Showcase at the 2017 San Francisco ASBA Conference was a great introduction for the class he subsequently taught locally for BAGSC, October 24 – 26, at The Los Angeles Arboretum.
Martin's method is to work directly from photographs. He takes great care to stage the photos for dramatic lighting and for color accuracy to the point where paint colors can be directly matched to the colors on a printed photo. Although Martin jokes about his limited pallet there is a wisdom to it. He promotes mixing small quantities of the desired color to create a more realistic appearance.
My biggest take-away from Martin was the notion of placing "mostly the right color in mostly the right place" from the very beginning. Here are three examples of my paintings from classes within the past year. Hint: both of the Orchid specimens had deep red to nearly black areas.
I call the one from mid-point of John Pastoriza Pinol's class "my pretty pony" , the other is my first attempt at vellum from Carol Woodin's class. I eventually finished each of these about two months later.
Contrast these to the depth of tone achieved on this dandelion bud (~15x) in Martin Allen's workshop.
The more classes I take, the more convinced I am that there is no right or wrong method. To me the secret is to keep an open mind and amass a tool kit of knowledge that can be applied where it suits the subject matter.

First Solar ex-CEO Rob Gillette's big severance
Published 4:00 am, Friday, October 28, 2011
Rob Gillette, who stepped down as CEO of First Solar Inc. this week, may be eligible for an $8.9 million severance package and collected $29.9 million for his initial 15 months on the job.
The Tempe, Ariz., company - the world's biggest maker of thin-film solar panels - rewarded Gillette while its shares fell 60 percent from the day he started in October 2009 through Monday, the day before he resigned. Compensation for Gillette is at least 19 percent more than Chevron Corp. CEO John Watson earned over the same period, when the U.S. energy company's shares gained 54 percent.
Gillette's pay, described in regulatory filings for 2009 and 2010, also shows a $5 million signing bonus to lure him from Honeywell International Inc. First Solar received $3.07 billion in loan guarantees from the U.S. government to support projects using its technology, which is a rival to silicon-based cells made by Chinese companies led by Suntech Power Holdings Co.
"Gillette's compensation was unusually front-loaded, so when it came time to throw him out, he had them on the hook for a lot of money," said Graef Crystal, a compensation expert and Bloomberg News consultant. "This wasn't pay for performance, it was pay for future performance."

Chevron's Watson was paid a total of $8.8 million in 2009 and $16.3 million last year, according to Chevron filings.
Gillette earned a total of $8.07 million in salary and other compensation in 2008, his last full year leading Honeywell's aerospace division, according to company filings. His compensation was $4.14 million in 2009, before he left to run First Solar.
First Solar almost doubled production capacity as the market became oversupplied and prices for solar panels plunged, contributing to the bankruptcies of three U.S. manufacturers, including Solyndra in Fremont, the recipient of a $535 million U.S. loan guarantee.
Ted Meyer, First Solar spokesman, wouldn't discuss Gillette's compensation. Gillette couldn't be reached.
First Solar Chairman Michael Ahearn was named interim CEO on Tuesday and the next day slashed the company's sales and profit forecasts for 2011. He plans to reduce capital spending to survive a global decline in demand and prices for solar products while shifting resources to expand sales in new regions.
Gillette's severance package, according to First Solar's proxy statement filed April 13, includes $2.55 million in cash and $19,111 in medical benefits.
It also includes as much as $6.33 million in stock compensation, based on the company's $130.14 share price at the end of last year.
First Solar shares rose 15 percent to close at $52.90 Thursday, the biggest gain since April 29, 2010. It plunged 25 percent, the most ever, on Tuesday after the company announced Gillette's departure.

Apheresis: A potent therapeutic in extracorporeal photopherisis Apheresis, the simple procedure for drawing bloodstream, becomes a powerful therapeutic in extracorporeal photopherisis according to clinicians and researchers who met at the NIH State of the Research Symposium in Therapeutic Apheresis. Nora Ratcliffe, MD, of Dartmouth Hitchcock, viewed current methodology and opportunities for analysis in a paper lately published in Transfusion Medication Review, titled 'National Institutes of Wellness State of the Research Symposium in Therapeutic Apheresis: Scientific Possibilities in Extracorporeal Photopheresis.' 'What we know now about ECP can be that it is in a position to function in more than one way,' said Ratcliffe.Anthony Carbone provides early-stage prostate tumor, and says he's held the consequences at b. 'We centered on African-American men because they're at risky for developing prostate tumor and so are more than doubly more likely to die from prostate malignancy than other groupings in the usa,' Charnita Zeigler-Johnson, analysis assistant professor at the guts for Clinical Biostatistics and Epidemiology at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, said in a news release. 'Although that is a high-risk group for poor prostate malignancy outcomes, no published research had focused on analyzing baldness as a potential risk element in an example of African-American men.' About 238,590 fresh cases of prostate malignancy will be diagnosed in 2013 and 29, 720 males will die this complete year from the condition, based on the American Cancer Culture.

People who prefer the Casper mattresses will have to add a few hundred dollars to get their preferred product. Many stores sell them between the ranges of 550 to 1150 dollars. Tuft Needle requires less investment where an individual can own it after spending between 350 to 750 dollars.
Another benefit is that it wont develop cavity after you sleep on it. This feature is great for couples who are sharing one bed. When you sleep on the bed, a mold will immediately be formed. Each sleep partner will form its own mold. In this way, you wont easily move to the other side of the bed.
If you are looking for more support in your bed, then you might find that a piece of extra firm memory foam will help you to achieve that. If you find that parts of you really stick out and into the mattress, then firm or extra firm is the way to go.

MLAs could not break 'super injunctions'
Assembly members breaking a super injunction by naming the individual involved would be breaking the law, a Stormont spokesperson has said.
Four such injunctions have been awarded by the NI High Court since 2007.
The information was revealed on Monday in an answer from the justice minister to TUV leader Jim Allister.
In Westminster, Liberal Democrat MP John Hemming used the privilege of the House of Commons to name Ryan Giggs, as the subject of a super injunction.
However, commenting on the possibility of an MLA doing likewise, the spokesperson said that assembly privilege was narrower than that afforded to MPs in Westminster.
"Assembly privilege is for defamation proceedings only whereas MPs have wider protection," the spokesperson said.
"An example of that would be where a MP could break a super injunction as one of them did recently, if an MLA did it, he/she would be breaking the law and would not be similarly protected."

In a recent weekend edition of the #CIOChat tweetchat, the question was raised about what the CIO's role would look like in five years. The discussion focused on many different areas. One area was that the CIO would become more of a service broker, as more and more applications move to the cloud. The responsibility discussion becomes less about controlling / owning iron / hardware / space, which has been the traditional area of CIO responsibilities. This prompted a secondary question from me: Has the cloud industry reached the point where it is too big to fail? Granted none of the big players in the cloud show any signs of financial trouble, but there was a time when the auto industry and the banking industry could say the same. Have we reached that tipping point? Has the cloud industry become too big to fail and, if it has, what is the impact?
Cloud landscape, huge growth coupled with upheaval
There is no doubt that the cloud industry is growing. Spending in the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) space continues with double digit growth. Gartner expects a 32.8 percent growth from 2014 to 2015, which translates to over $16B. They also predict a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.1% forecasted from 2014 to 2019. While speaking at a Gartner conference in Sydney last spring, Gartner Vice President and Analyst Lydia Leong discussed how the IaaS marketplace is rapidly consolidating around a small number of market leaders. "The sky is not falling - customers are getting great value out of cloud IaaS - but the competitive landscape is shifting," Ms. Leong said.
A key challenge for the competitors is the significant investment in resources (hardware, physical space, staffing) that is needed to be competitive in this space. Hewlett-Packard's recent departure from the public cloud was the first high profile vendor to leave the competition. Fortunately, while HP is a large vendor, they were late to the game in the public cloud space. They had trouble getting traction against the three 800lb gorillas (Microsoft, Amazon, and Google). HP had already been scaling back their public cloud push, and provided existing cloud customers with tight integration and migration services to the Microsoft and Amazon platforms. Their exit made people sit up and take notice. Being a large company does not guarantee success in this space.
The rule of three
About a decade ago, I read 'The Rule of Three: Surviving and Thriving In Competitive Markets.' The authors, Jagdish Sheth and Rajendra Sisodia, discuss how mature markets and industries tend to evolve into two major segments: generalists who service the largest portion of the customer base, and specialists who provide niche capabilities for customers at both the high and low end of the markets. They describe the space in the middle as 'the ditch.' Anyone caught in 'the ditch' will either be swallowed up or fall by the wayside (HP, for example, fell in the ditch). In the generalist category, the authors suggest that eventually three players will dominate the space, controlling a large percentage of the business. I am sure we can all think of examples of this scenario, whether it be the auto industry, financial, or retail. The upheaval in the cloud space that Gartner refers to is coalescing into a version of this model. In the generalist segment, I doubt anyone would argue, the cloud has its big three: Microsoft, Amazon, and Google. The big three have a combined capacity that far exceeds the total capacity of the other 12 competitors combined.
Back to the question
Has the cloud become too big to fail? What would the risks and challenges be if a major cloud vendor were to stumble? What are the considerations? One of my colleagues, Zach Slayton, VP of Digital Technology Solutions at Collaborative Consulting, had this to say: "If one major vendor has a significant stumble and there is flight from that vendor to one of the other gorillas, can they handle the scale? It would be a high class problem for the receiving vendors but likely a problem nonetheless." Besides just the capacity issue, there are other potential risks and impacts. Each vendor has their own custom features and offerings. This is the classic vendor lock-in scenario, but with a twist. In the past, you still owned and controlled the hardware. In the public cloud that is not the case. The migration and transition costs to another vendor and/or platform would be significant. Resources, code migration, re-platforming, testing, validation testing, data migration, all would be costly and time-consuming. Then there is the potential domino effect in both directions. On one side, similar to the auto industry concerns, the various vendors and suppliers (both hardware and software) for a failed cloud vendor could be impacted financially with lost sales, outstanding billings, etc. On the consumer side, businesses that rely on the services of companies hosted in the failed cloud vendor are at risk of service interruption while the providers find alternatives.
My answer: yes, but no, the sky is not falling
I do think the cloud is too big to fail. If for some unforeseeable reason one of the big three were to stumble, I think there would be government intervention, similar to the auto and financial industries to mitigate the risk and potential damage. The impact of not intervening would be huge across the board, globally and economically.
That being said, there is no sign of any problems that would lead to the public cloud industry failing. As I quoted Lydia Leong earlier, the sky is not falling; the cloud is providing tremendous value to its customers. The big three continue to provide new innovations and features that provide tremendous business value. As technologists, part of our job is to understand potential risks inherent in technology, and to think about worst case scenarios. The cloud is a ubiquitous part of our lives, both on a personal and business level. It is a critical component in continued business innovation and growth and is not going anywhere. Don't let the fear of the sky falling prevent you from moving forward to leverage the reward and benefits the cloud can bring your business .
