Scenic Painting
Over the years I have supplemented my props work with scenic painting. I have taken on two productions (Tarzan and Aida) at the Atlanta Lyric Theatre as Scenic Charge. I was also a co-charge for the premier of Out of Darkness: Two Remain produced by The Atlanta Opera. Between college and 2017, I spent most of my career touring with Disney on Ice: Frozen produced by Feld Entertainment. There, I was tasked with maintaining the props and set as the production aged. Much of this work was replicating the original paint treatment if the original material was damaged or destroyed. Due to Non Disclosure Agreements I am unable to highlight my work with Feld Entertainment on my website. Please reach out if you would like to see additional work samples.

We used spare foliage around the shop as well as some cut stencils of leaves to add layers of leaves. As the three colors of spatter were added in on the top, we removed a few leaves at a time giving them different depths.

getting creative with textures. The challenge was to closely replicate the technique done on the bottom half of the set, but paining it up.
