Description
Scenic Compendium: Techniques, Tools & Tricks for Theatrical Scenic Painting (with Emily Curtis) is a comprehensive book on the art and craft of painting scenery for theatrical productions. Accompanied by numerous full color images, useful descriptions & examples of scenic painting techniques, the Scenic Compendium is a wide-ranging resource of artistic & technical painting information, written to benefit the professional painter and student of scenic painting. Topics include: Art & Theater Design/Painting History, Theatrical Painting Techniques, Color & Paint, Theatrical Backdrops, Texture Coatings, Signage & Graphics, Three Dimensional Carving & Sculpting, Special Effects & Non-Traditional Painting Techniques, (How to Think About) Painting a Production, Rules for Good Painting Practice, a Glossary of Painting Terms, and much more. A practical, comprehensive resource covering the fundamental, advanced, far-reaching and sometimes unique or obscure painting approaches to producing beautifully painted scenery for the stage. The Scenic Compendium combines highly specialized artistic information with utilitarian 'nuts and bolts' or 'how-to-paint' together into a single resource. Written by a professional painting instructor, paint shop supervisor, and scenic painter with around 30 years of experience painting and teaching for theater, television, film, theme park, industrial and many design/painting projects. Mr. Keener's book, Scenic Compendium: Techniques, Tools & Tricks for Theatrical Scenic Painting (with Emily Curtis) represents the accumulated scenic painting knowledge that can only be obtained by a scenic painter with an artist's curiosity about working in the centuries-old tradition of the theatrical scenic artist while continually exploring alternate painting methods designed to expand the visual world of a production. The Scenic Compendium is intended to be a dependably thorough, practical - and sometimes arcane - resource for any theatrical paint shop; or anyone who has an artistic, vocational or educational interest in exploring the vast knowledge of the scenic artist in a theatrical painting context. Mr. Keener is a member of IATSE. He holds a BFA in Studio Art from The Florida State University and an MFA in Scenic Design from The University of Connecticut. He is the scenic painter for Emerson College/Emerson Stage, for the Department of Performing Arts, Boston, MA.
