Once again, JimChisholm’s drawing students have produced an exciting mural, this one based onStravinsky’s Firebird. Afterlistening to and watching excerpts from the ballet, the students were asked to visualizethe music and plot.  The result is themural, pictured below, which is presently exhibited in the Lynn Library.


Commenting on themural, Professor Chisholm says, “My Basic Drawing 2 students, workingindividually and as a team, were able to develop very strong design solutions,to self-adjust the design when necessary to keep an overall consistency to thedesign, and to maintain strong focus throughout the mural’s development. Themural process is a complex process, often requiring multitasking;  in this case, the process involved resolvingmusical and visual references, and ending up with something that  will be able to provide a consistent visualnarrative.”Please visit and viewthis unusual work of art!Carolyn Johnson, Lynn Library Coordinator
