www.marlenegremillion.com            I have not posted in a while but that does not mean I have just been sitting around.  Have taught a few workshops and am gearing up to teach more.  Be sure to check my web sit for all the latest.  www.marlenegremillion.com

The latest posts are classes and workshops at the Arkansas Arts Center fall session and Natinal Park Community College Continuing Education. So if you want to learn something new or just brush up on your skills come and join me.

Haven't been as faithful at my blog spot lately but thought maybe would catch you up.  You can always go and see my teaching activity on my web site under past events and view students hard at work.  I have so much fun teaching and watching others learn.  I have taught a number of workshops lately in watercolor, abstract and mixed media along with a few jewelry classes and workshops.  I must admit I stay busy but it is all so enjoyable and exciting to travel and meet others along the way.

Most of my past events are current and up to date.  Ben, my son, is so good with my web site.  What a joy to work with him.

Watercolor on Yupo Workshop

Finished a fun workshop with old friends and new ones in West Monroe, LA at the Ouachita River Art Gallery. What creativity went on. Hope it got those that have not been painting in a while jump started. Check it out at http://www.marlenegremillion.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=131

Be sure to click to view all the wonderful pictures of what went on.

I love to see students concentrating on their projects. Sometimes they don't even know I have photographed them.

These were taken at my last jewelry workshop at the Arkansas Arts Center in Little Rock, AR.

Thanks Arts Center for letting me have the workshop there.
