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

Color Along The Creek 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 band of cadmium and lemon foliage runs across the upper middle, deep blue hills sit above it, and below the creek is laid in long horizontal knife strokes of blue, cream and shell pink. Three registers, three temperatures, stacked. Smith keeps the water almost entirely unworked — the widest passage of flat paint in her work here — so that the yellow above it has somewhere to sound against. The restraint is the whole composition.
