Back in a theatre- this time at People’s Light in Malvern PA, outside Philly. The wonderful crew installing the flower crown above the set!

Laser cutting drafting onto basswood sheets. I planned this project as a midterm for the 3D fabrication class I audited, back at UMN in 2019. The school laser cutter couldn’t handle the drafting- it was so finicky about lines and shapes. My own glowforge had no problem! Happy to finally realize the idea. It was a couple years into switching to computer drafting and the very beginning of my appreciation for laser cutting.

Scenic creation process for Scenes from an Execution at Quantum Theatre with wonderful scenic design assistant, painter and prop designer Emily Landis. At sight specific space Abiding Missions, a church turned community center.

Storyboarding with model photos for Origin Story by Nathan Alan Davis at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park. Psyched to go make theatre with this team next month!

Finishing the Origin Story 1/2” scale model. First I texture and paint all the pieces to look like OSB board. (Is that phrasing a double b-board?). Then dry brush the white, aqua and blue on top.

Working on the half inch model for Origin Story at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park. Raising letters for the signs.
