Royal Ballet and Opera“I get to do everything I love every single day.” 🎨 For Scenic Art Apprentice Lily, bringing Parsifal to life means looking closely at the marks that time leaves behind - from water stains and scuffed tiles to metalwork made to appear worn and aged. Using layers of paint to create the illusion of wear, Lily reveals the artistry behind making something look convincingly imperfect, while reflecting on an apprenticeship she describes as life-changing. #TheRoyalOpera #Parsifal #BehindTheScenes #ScenicArt #Apprentice #RoyalBalletAndOpera
