To Whom It May Concern,

As you will see on my enclosed resume, I have substantial experience in the field of theatrical design - both legitimate and commercial - especially as regards scenic design. I am currently accepting design and illustration projects on a freelance basis, and will consider a full time position in the appropriate working environment. My career began with extensive work as an assistant/associate/co-designer with many prominent New York designers and I consider the range and quality of my studio/artistic skills to be, at least, perfectly adequate to meet the demands of any environmental design studio in the country.

I appreciate your consideration in this matter, and hope we find an opportunity to collaborate together soon.

Sincerely

Nikita Polyansky
