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.

“Gesture and expressive use of line are key elements in my work.”— Randena Walsh

A golden-crowned sparrow in profile against pale green and ochre, the black crown stripes and yellow centre crisply drawn while the body dissolves into wash. Third in a series. Walsh consistently resolves the head and lets the rest go, which is how the bird actually registers in the field — you see the face and infer the rest.
