Workshop One Photos

THEATRICAL SCENIC TECHNIQUES  Workshop One

These are some photos from this first workshop introduction to scenic techniques used on stage sets. They learned the mixing of paint, creating wood grain, brick and granite. All of these techniques can also be used for your home and other artistic creations.

Everyone had a blast and I so enjoyed teaching these techniques.
