Unreferenced date June 2007 Working in layers is a system for creating artistic paintings that involve the use of more than one layer of paint. Oil Painting Working in layers is used extensively in oil painting for paintings that require more than one session. For a painting that develops over several days, allowing for the oil paint to dry for a given layer, it is helpful to work with explicit painting layers. The first layer may be a ground, usually applied all over the surface. Then an underdrawing in outline may follow. Then comes underpainting , overpainting , and finally semi transparent Glaze painting technique glaze s and varnish . All of these layers will affect the appearance of the final painting. To understand the role of underpainting, one can use metaphor and think of the underpainting as a base rhythm in music, and the overpainting as a solo played over this. Areas not underpainted, outlining the space for a figure for example, are said to be reserved . History Working in layers has been utilized by many schools of art over many centuries, although the overall trend in Western art since the Middle Ages has been towards a simplified and quicker technique. For example, in the early 15th century Cennino D Andrea Cennini describes how to paint in layers in the egg tempera medium. In contrast, his directions for painting in fresco , done in one session on damp plaster, offer a different system although even here, there is some layering employed. The important distinction is that in fresco , a second layer of paint will physically blend with the first, whereas in egg tempera , which dries rapidly, a second layer will cover and optically blend with the first layers. When a new layer is added to a still wet earlier layer, this is called wet in wet painting. A significant change in the history of western painting occurred in the course of the Renaissance when the white ... techniques such as X ray s and infra red reflectograms often enable lower layers of paint and underdrawing ... more details
Shearing layers is a concept coined by architect Frank Duffy architect Frank Duffy which was later elaborated by Stewart Brand in his book How Buildings Learn How Buildings Learn What Happens After They re Built Brand, 1994 , and refers to buildings as composed of several layers of change. Description The Shearing layers concept views buildings as a set of components that evolve in different timescales Frank Duffy summarized this view in his phrase Our basic argument is that there isn t any such thing as a building. A building properly conceived is several layers of longevity of built components quoted in Brand, 1994 . The layers are quoted from Brand, 1994 Site This is the geographical setting, the urban location, and the legally defined lot, whose boundaries and context outlast generations of ephemeral buildings. Site is eternal. Duffy agrees. Structure The foundation and load bearing elements are perilous and expensive to change, so people don t. These are the building. Structural life ranges from thirty to three hundred years but few buildings make it past sixty for other reasons . Skin Exterior surfaces now change every twenty years or so, to keep up with fashion or technology, or for wholesale repair. Recent focus on energy costs has led to re engineered skins that are air tight and better Building insulation insulated .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Cleanup rewrite date May 2009 What are Render Passes? When creating computer generated imagery or 3D computer graphics , final scenes appearing in movies and television productions are usually produced by Rendering computer graphics more than one layer or pass, which are multiple images designed to be put together through digital compositing to form a completed frame. Rendering in passes is based on a traditions in Motion control photography which pre date CGI. As an example, in motion control photography for a visual effects shot, a camera could be programmed to move past a physical model of a spaceship in one pass to film the fully lit beauty pass of the ship, and then to repeat exactly the same camera move passing the ship again to photograph additional elements such as the illuminated windows in the ship or its thrusters. Once all of the passes were filmed, they could then be optically printed together to form a completed shot. The terms Render Layers and Render Passes are sometimes used interchangeably. However, rendering in layers refers specifically to separating different objects into separate images, such as a foreground characters layer, a sets layer, a distant landscape layer, and a sky layer. Rendering in passes, on the other hand, refers to separating out different aspects of the scene, such as shadows, highlights, or reflections, each into a separate image.

image Cocktail Onions.JPG right 180px A jar of cocktail onions. A cocktail onion is usually a pearl onion pickled in a brine with small amounts of turmeric and paprika . Typically, a pearl onion is used as a cocktail onion. Pearl onions are naturally sweet, which makes them an excellent pairing with many cocktails. Other sweet onions such as the crystal wax, also known as the white Bermuda, are also sometimes used. In many cases, white varieties of these sweet onions are used, since many consumers expect cocktail onions to be white. However, yellow or red sweet onions may be used as well. In northern California cuisine some Haute cuisine haute bars may use sliced red onion pickled in vinegar . Some recipes also call for the onions to be packed in white vermouth as well as vinegar Generally, the onion retains a slightly crunchy texture through the brining process, which can add a different mouthfeel to the drinking experience. Since the cocktail onion is made from a sweet onion, it is unlikely to upset the digestion with a sulfurous or eye watering taste, although some cultures use more pungent onions as cocktail garnishes. Use as a garnish While not as widely used as more common garnishes such as Olive fruit olives or lemon twists, the cocktail onion is the signature garnish of the Gibson cocktail Gibson , which consists of a standard Martini garnished with a cocktail onion instead of the standard olive.
