Depending where you want to go with this, you can also dig deeper into
the underpinnings.  There is previous work on doing raytracing
directly in smalltalk:

No idea what the license is, but it does show that you can do what you
want in Smalltalk/Squeak.  It just takes time and effort (a lot of it
to rival Blender3d).
