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

Set your screen once. Hold a bank card against the screen and slide until the orange outline matches its width.

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.

“Early on, I made a conscious choice to portray through my art the beauty and hope that I find in nature.”— Pamela Wachtler

I worked in watercolor here, letting the soft greens and yellows breathe through the trees the way light actually moves through a forest — unhurried, diffuse. A figure rests quietly among the rocks, and somewhere beyond the canopy, birds move through the open air; I wanted this to be that moment of stillness a person finds when the world outside grows too loud. A handwritten poem by Jacqulin Tovis accompanies the image, because some places ask to be held in more than one kind of language.
