Who I am
I'm a London-based scenic artist specialising in large-scale scenic painting, faux finishes and surface texture for stage. My placement experience at the Royal Opera House Workshop and Queen's Theatre Hornchurch has built a strong production foundation: scaling up, wet blending, lining, marbling, wood graining and built texture.
I hold a broad humanities background, basic coding ability (C++/Java), and a fluent working command of English and native Chinese. I'm methodical, research-led, and calm under deadline — seeking scenic art roles in theatre.
A note on practice
Scenic painting is a craft of patience: measuring twice so you only paint once, mixing the old batch into the new so the colour stays continuous, lining straight under a paint-frame call. The work is technical, but it asks you to look at the stage lighting and the actor's distance from the cloth — to think about how a thing will be seen before you decide how it should be made. That's the part I love.
