Draft drawing of ekkyklema. Dimensions were ultimately adjusted for wagon to be larger in order to fit two bodies. We made it slightly taller, and added a handle so it could be pushed and pulled on and off stage.

Floor elevation. Decided on a dark indigo for base (sprayed on), and lavender, metallic pale gold, and crimson for texture and color (hand-spattered).

Shaping columns, adding joint compound and cheesecloth for a strong paintable surface.

Repairing altar, which we later base coated and repainted to match columns.

Indigo base layer being applied to floor to cover previous show's floor paint.

Painting columns to achieve a gray marble look.

Finished floor after adding sealer.

Shaping rock wall and adding joint compound and cheesecloth for strong paintable surface. We modified an existing rock wall from a previous show, re-carved the back of it, and painted the new sections to match the old section.

Veining columns, adding wash.

Base coat for modified section of rock wall.

Placing and anchoring scenic pieces.

Sketching snakes to be cut out and added to wagon.

Painting gold snake on altar and surrounding floor.

Painting wagon and hand-spattering snakes.

Matching paint and making sure scenic elements work together.

First draft of altar and step columns.
