About me
I have chosen to specialise namely as a freelance Scenic Artist, i have always had a flair for painting and been particularly good at imitating other painters styles and work, which is very useful! i am very skilled at interpreting designs and have trained and worked as a designer myself which is an invaluable help. On completion of my degree I was lucky enough to work on consecutive shows at Northampton's Royal and Derngate. I have also used my skills for other opportunities and events, i recently painted a scenic backdrop of Scotland for wedding photos. I am a confident and very competent scenic artist and keen and energetic with it. I am also an ambitious designer- i have excellent problem solving skills and a great understanding of how to make things work- both mechanically and visually. I have worked in a wide range of Design and Production jobs within theatre, giving me a well rounded understanding of how everything works optimally.Additional skills:
I have a broad range of useful skills including upholstery, woodwork, seamstress, prop maker and a wide variety of Craft skills.
My brief/design interpretation skill are very good indeed.
Colour matching is a speciality. (If this does not work out i may consider a career in forgery.)
I am a good communicator. And can communicate well with anyone, i have worked a lot with children and disabled children in theatre. I have also chaired meetings with Heads of College in my capacity of College Officer at Wimbledon.
I have also worked on window displays and product styling for Harvey Nichols .
Referees:
Eleanor Davies has gained invaluable and sufficient knowledge, experience and respect for the field of Scenic Art since being employed by The Royal and Derngate Theatre. Eleanor has the ability to work independently, or as part of a team working under instruction and to a design specification. She has proven herself to work to extreme deadlines but still maintain a high level of detailed accuracy. Always enthusiastic and always willing to see a project through to completion , Eleanor is highly capable of reproducing an aesthetic to meet the requirements of the designer and where necessary, researching and painting in the style of specified artists. A solid addition to any Paint-shop team!
