Poppy III 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

Three poppies fill the whole canvas at close range, petals in coral and dusty rose with cream at the folded edges and deep blue-violet dropping into each throat. This is a different painter from the one who makes the forest interiors — the strokes are broad and wet, following the curve of each petal rather than building structure, and there is no depth to speak of. What carries over is the temperature: she puts violet where another painter would put shadow, so even a pink flower is held together by cold colour.
