"Recently, I completed set design work for a local theatre company. I enjoyed this project and found inspiration in the creativity required to make all the moving parts come together. I also found this project a challenge as I worked alongside a new kind of artist type - the actors and the set director! In this instance, I was not the most artistic person in the room, and eccentricity surrounded me. This experience pushed me out of my comfort zone as an Interior Designer. The sets had to be simple, mobile, and profound. On opening night, I sat in the audience and was very proud of what we had accomplished. I was amazed at how the set came alive with the actors, lighting, and overall vibe brought on by the guests. I worked so hard to come up with the perfect design that would also allow for quick changes between scenes. This approach required minimalist thinking, which I found both tricky and exciting."
