This was my first solo project during my apprenticeship with the Walnut Street Theatre. From this project I learned to properly lay out a drop and work with poly-muslin.

This was my third time working with poly-muslin during my apprenticeship and was able to work in a lot more detail. I was responsible for the replicating paintings as well as the gold frames surrounding.
