They are often responsible for the recreation of authentic surfaces, as well as ageing and breakdown. Common tasks include simulating wood, stone, brick, metal, or stained glass. Scenic artists may also be responsible for the execution of portraits, murals, and similar pictorial assets for that production. These tasks may be credited to a scenic painter, who performs largely the same role as a scenic artist.[2] [3]

However there are items from 20th century Doctor Who that are cited as being the creations of scenic artists. The copies of the Mona Lisa used in City of Death would have been the creation of a scenic artist at the BBC.[4]
