Jessica Goerold Scenic Artist
At right, I've compiled a gallery of various shows that I've worked on. It's by no means comprehensive, but gives a good overview of my skills.
I've cropped and done a small amount of colour correction to give the best representation of the work, but otherwise, the photos haven't been enhanced.

I would have loved to include this show in the Stage Shots section, but I didn't get a chance to take photos of the finished product. Suffice to say there were a lot of textures and shades of white.
backdrop in progress - Tintoretto's Massacre of the Innocents
stenciled wallpaper - each stencil layer was hand drawn and hand cut
one of the fake Rothko paintings for RED
stenciled snowflakes - looking down on the stage from the catwalk, you can see the wide range of sizes
all of the scenery was a sort of collage in black and white, with a few areas of muted ochre
a very small portion of a very large textured background wall, which included various types of textures and wear patterns (brick, stucco, plaster walls, painted or "unpainted")
