Scenic Painting

Some process photos of different painting projects. My scenic painting training came primarily from blogs and tips from colleagues over the years. Recently I have been able to add workshops and classes to increase my knowledge.

Scenic painting course with Jeromy Hopgood: gridding practice, brick, flagstone, marble, architectural element. The wood floor was a group effort: the entire class worked to complete the circle for EMU’s production of Silent Sky. All other projects were solo works.

USITT Paint Lab 2025: Flowers & foliage, wood grain, reflective surfaces (timed), painting on velour.
