March of the Piping Plovers168 viewsRussel Saunders's massive canvass, "March of the Piping Plovers," now on exhibit at the Marion Art Center's Winter Member's Show, immediately draws the viewer into the scene.

"I used a Sony camera that could produce a 20,000,000-pixel image," he explained. The effect is like walking into the image. "It has a 3D quality."
