Five Routes into the Scenic Art Industry

Guild of Scenic Artists: Painting scenery is one of those jobs people don’t think about. As a kid, I watched countless movies and plays without ever thinking about the scenery and how it got there. I also grew up drawing and painting and knew I wanted to earn a living as a painter in some way. I simply didn’t put the two things together. And I don’t think I’m alone. When you think about the Scenics that you know, most will have started off training to be theatre designers, fine artists or illustrators and very few, if any, will have always wanted to paint scenery for a living.
