Keith placed down his brush, stepping back to review his work. Maybe the smaller details werenāt needed, the audience certainly wouldnāt see them from their seats, but heād poured so much time and work into the scene that he wanted it to be perfect for him more than them. This was one of his last pieces before the show, the benefit of him being obsessive towards his work, and it was beautiful. The fine golden foil sheen practically glew beneath the lights, a fine shine to everything, the royal blue heād just painted accenting the stairwell leading down to the ballroom floor. It was three dimensional, with actual fake columns being set forward and the chandelier ready to be lowered into the set, actual stairs for the actors to descend. Ā He was proud to say that the Altean Regal Theater would definitely being using this set again. He was confident of it.
The noirette took a step back, wiping a bit of sweat from his forehead, scrutinizing his work. His paint stained T-shirt hung loosely from his shoulder, the black material permanently stained with evidence of his past works, the newest golden and blue stains joined with the myriad of colors spread across the cheap fabric. He hopes the owner of the theater, Alfor, likes it. Keith only got the job here because Allura loved his stuff so much, but he doesnāt think heāll get to keep his job here if the dad doesnāt like it. Heās feeling pretty confident though, especially since heād finished a good month before his deadline.
Satisfied, Keith reached down and plucked up his long forgotten coffee cup, taking a long and rewarding sip as he let his shoulders relax, relishing a job well done. He dropped his brush into a dirty cup, also caked with years of paint, letting the fine bristles soak away the blue.
