Sam McMillan: The Dot Man
 

This documentary follows self-taught artist Sam McMillan at work and play in his Winston-Salem, North Carolina gallery and his home. Much of Sam's art is functional, and he is known for his bold painting with enamels, his use of primary colors, his "trademark" dots, and scenes that often feature animals, country settings, Winston-Salem, or New York City. "Sam McMillan: The Dot Man" was broadcast on North Carolina Public Television on the program "North Carolina Visions," and was named Best Independent Documentary at the 2003 Carolina Film and Video Festival. Copies of the film are available on VHS for $25 (this price includes shipping and handling). Contact dalton@wfu.edu for purchase information.
