I am an art therapist turned scenic artist. I paint theatre/ film sets and read books about psychoanalysis on my lunch break. Keeps me sharp. On my toes. Mrow.
Most of what I post here are little things I do for fun, just to keep those fine art skills tuned to perfection while I'm faced with 40 hours a week of painting solid colors, distressing, texturing, wood graining, and climbing up scaffolding and then humiliating myself when I can't climb down.
