Nothing here has been enhanced. Everything you see is derived from the object — the record below says exactly how each view was made.

Along The River by Teresa Smith
Set your screen once. Hold a bank card against the screen and slide until the orange outline matches its width.

This is the photograph at true size, for placing it in your room with your phone. Its sides and back will appear here after the studio capture — we will not invent them.

The surface under moving light

This view is built only from real photographs of the work, each lit from a different angle, so you can move the light yourself and watch the real surface answer. It is being captured in the studio and will appear here. Until then we show nothing rather than an imitation.

“I paint an island as sanctuary.”— Teresa Smith

A pale sandbar and river run horizontally across the middle, painted in cream and grey with the knife, flat and largely unworked. The event is a burst of cadmium yellow foliage right of centre — the only high-chroma passage in the picture and placed where the eye lands first. Fir boughs in prussian blue crowd both edges; violet-grey hills sit behind. Smith is usually a painter of closed forest interiors, and here she opens the middle distance and leaves it nearly empty. The restraint in the water is what allows the yellow to be that loud.
