This is another picture I made based on an Arthur Rackham painting. I gave it stronger colours because I knew that the person I were going to give it to would like that, and she did :)
This Blog is about things I have made as a scenic artist. (construction, props and paintings for theatre, some of the paintings are decorative art for peoples homes.) I hope you like it :)

Rolling Stones
I made this as a Christmas present for my aunt and uncle.
And inside they found this picture. It was a picture my uncle wanted for his new pub.
Odin
This painting is based on a painting by Arthur Rackham, and I painted it after a request. I'm a big fan of Arthur Rackham paintings, so I was happy to give it a try.
The Europeans
I was project manager in this show, and in my scenic arts team I had 3 other members. This show was out up in The Unicorn Theatre in London.
The lid on the box was lifted by a chain hoist for one of the scenes.
The only regret I have about this show, is that this was the last show I did as a student at Rose Bruford College.
As it is in Heaven And Deliver us from evil
This production was put up in The rose at Rose Bruford College.
We were a team of 5 scenic artists.
In this production there was a lot of stuff to build, and a lot of painted wood grain. Most of the stuff in the pictures are made by us, including the 4 benches. we did not make the table and chairs.
The Wonderful world of Dissocia
This is a show I worked on in my 2nd year at Rose Bruford. The Wonderful world of Dissocia is a play by Anthony Neilson, and it was putt up in The Unicorn Theatre in London. The set consisted of a 6 m tall wall with a bend in it. The stage and the wall was covered by a carpet that we painted a pattern on to.
We were 5 team scenic artist working on this one, so we made each our flower in polystyreneOther than the flowers we had to make a "kids" car.
I had a lot of fun on this show, we got to work with a processional Director, and in a professionally venue. We were a strong team of scenic artists, and everyone I worked with made the experience a wonderful one. I became the "Jigsaw master" on this one! :)
Sign
This was a 1st year project, where I made a sign for the stage management department at Rose Bruford. The book and the cup are made of polystyrene.
Gut Girls
Molossian dog
This project was fantastic. It was the first time I had done anything like this. The project were to find an 3D object in the British Museums' Egyptian of Roman department.
I absolutely fell in love with the sculpture of the Molossian dog, which is a marble sculpture, it also goes under the mane Jennings Dog. The project was to small to do a replica of the entire sculpture, so I decided to make just the head. The first picture is of the dog in clay. After a lot of work, using plaster, fibre glass, car filler and a lot of sanding and paint it ended up looking like the picture underneath. This project is the reason I'm now working on a new fibre glass sculpture for my elective. It gave me a sweet taste of sculpturing in 3D, and casting it in fibre glass.

Julius Caesar
I made this painting for Julius Caesar by Shakespeare at the Lazarus Theatre Company. It was my first attempt at painting a gauze. The picture is 4x5m, and so fare it's my biggest painting.
