In a workshop led by Melissa Pierce Murray, teenagers build life size and oversize paper drawings and collages of skeletons, inspired by real anatomical drawings of human, ape, cat, lion, horse and dog skeletons.

You can see all the resources by Melissa in this series here: ‘From Bones and Body to Structure and Form’, exploring drawing and sculptural responses to form, forces and anatomy.
