Drawing Into Space with Melissa Pierce Murray

By Melissa Pierce Murray

This was the final of four sessions in which we explored links between objects and drawings.

To introduce the session, I had students recall previous sessions Drawing with Objects, when they made compositions using steel, wood, glass and stones, and how subsequently these ideas influenced their Inky Objects drawings.

In this session, I invited students to create three-dimensional drawings from tape, string and paper, using the entire room as our canvas.

Megan Boyd


In a cottage in northern Scotland, Megan Boyd twirled bits of feather, fur, silver and gold into elaborate fishing flies -- at once miniature works of art and absolutely lethal. Wherever men and women cast their lines for the mighty Atlantic salmon, her name is whispered in mythic reverence, and stories about her surface and swirl like fairy tales. With breathtaking cinematography and expressive, hand painted animation, Kiss the Water adheres to and escapes from traditional documentary form, spinning the facts and fictions of one woman's life into a stunning film about craft, devotion, love, and its illusions. Enjoy the preview of Kiss the Water below - the film is sure to inspire.
