Scenic Artists Ross Turner and Paul Kathner started
Scenic Studios back in the 70’s. Brendan Pierce took over the studio in 2016 to continue the tradition of scenic painting that Ross and Paul taught him over 25 years
when he was under their wing.

Scenic Paints were developed over this time to paint backdrops and scenery for theatre and film.
