Savannah’s urban environment seems to have inspired the architectural drawings that were his specialty, although Walker’s pieces are far from picturesque renderings of historic buildings. Walker’s colorful images depict buildings which often reveal multiple perspectives, and both interiors and exteriors in the same view. In one work shown here, the artist uses multiple frames to suggest a mysterious narrative.
