Over the past two weeks I was commissioned to paint up some backdrops for a children’s theater group and I’m here to report that they’re finished! (Yes, a vast empty white canvas was what my sweet turtle was crawling all over.) They were actually finished and delivered on Sunday but it took this long to get my life and apartment back together. Anyway, there were 3 sets:
1. 8′x6′ Classroom setting, original sketch and final backdrop:
2. 8′x12′ Kitchen setting, original sketch and final backdrop:
3. 8′x6′ Girl’s Bedroom setting, original sketch:
All in all, it was a fun project which I would undoubtebly do again. It was a little pressing doing all three of the rather large canvases in 2 weeks, but they came out mostly well. Hopefully I’ll get to see the show next week and get some photos of the backdrops in action!
