I have had the most wonderful time working on this epic project. These five are some of my favorites from the set. Working in theatre for the last 20+ years I never thought I would be designing sets for online plays! If the pandemic has taught me one crucial thing, it is that reinvention is the key to survival. Normally, I would have had several scenic design/build gigs from my normal list of clients. The performing arts taking a hiatus since March, I was panicked about how that would pan out for my income. Fortunately, I found teaching online for RISD and EdTA not easy, but fun. Creating content (of which I have a whole new batch coming your way) for this style of teaching allowed me to become an artist  even more and explore my craft. I launched into found object sculpture with a fervor, my illustrations found new life and I even challenged myself to do Inktober 2020. It was doing this that landed me the Alice gig. I was recommended by a friend to a school looking for custom zoom backgrounds`in the style of John Tenniel. The pieces I had been putting forth for Inktober tipped the scales in my favor for the commission. 

Now, I really want to continue this sort of project, custom streaming theatre backgrounds. I hope to be able to get commissions for custom work by the theatre and educational theatre community. Here's to reinvention!
