Definition of scenic artist:
1: Painter and sculpter of backdrops, set pieces, murals, and more for use in Film, TV, Theatre, Exhibits, and instalations
2: An artist responsible for the creation of full scale desired immagry from a rendering, verbal agreement, or technical drawing
3; Painting wood to look like wood.
Scenic art, as a wise man once said, is a full body art form more similar to dance than painting. Also worse, because unlike painting, there is a “correct answer”. The perfect trade for the criminally insane, as a healthy alternative to art forgery and heists.
Keen observers and Myrrh fans will notice a large amount of film work missing. This is due to me being entirely unsure if I am allowed to post it. And as this is a low stakes personal site, I presently feel little need to investigate this further.
This page “scrolls sideways”! We hope you enjoy meandering these halls.
