Gate: step one: 3 colour scumble: raw sienna, paynes grey (mixed with white), light brown - Step two: hand free drawn grout line with a piece of wood (light grey) - Step three: raw umber shadow around the stones (mix of raw umber/water/glaze) - Step four: darker grey around stones to accentuate shadow - Step five: spatter brown, cream beige, black all around the gate - Step 6: mix black with water and glaze and sponge around the edges and on random stones to create relief and weathered stones.

These were made at a workshop taught by Jenny Knot of Rosco, Inc. at UM in Missoula, hosted by Alessia Carpocca. We explored the use of the coating products and were challenged to create different projects with shop junque. The biggest challenge was to assemble a Steampunk item.

I was charged with building the Book of Life for our production of Angels in America Part 1. For this project I primarily used Rosco Crystal Gel to adhere the materials to the surrounding frame and to create a flame retardant barrier between the head source and the material. the entirety of each section was them cover in Chrystal Gell to ensure stab-ability and create the clear sheen we wanted.

This project is the floor for the Williamstown Theatre Festival 2014 production of The Visit. Designed by Scott Pask, Scenic Charge-Keeley Dorwart

After the scenic shop gave me the railing pieces, we outlined where the face on the figures goes with pencil. After that I painted the whole thing a base golden yellow color. Then I went in and coated the golden parts in metallic gold paint. After that I base coated the silver portions with a charcoal gray and went in and covered those in silver metallic paint. After that was the red and blue bits. The entire process took the better portion of a workday because of the intricacy of the colors and the lack of a stencil for some of the parts.

I wanted to create an island that was practical and not loose the magic in the script. I went with layers of the pure colors on a white base and then rag-rolled two greys on top to create a rock-like appearance to everything. I then went back and added a few patches of the bright colors on top and put some florescent in a few spots so when the UV filter passed over it gave some of the units the appearance of movement and added some visual interest.

Mixed Paint to match a photo specified by the designer.

Finished with a clear coat mixed with slight metallic power solution.

We wanted to create a slightly textured resist to create raised, lighter grain on the wood for our boardwalk platforms, painted on masonite. We primed the masonite with backpaint, and then based the boards with a three color wet blend of Rosco Off Broadway colors mixed with white. To create the resist, we used Rosco Flat Acrylic right out of the can. We applied the Flat thickly with a brush, and used a cut squeege and a wood rocking tool to create the raised grain.
