Marlene Gremillion MSW, LWS, APS
Marlene Gremillion, a Hot Springs Village, Arkansas artist, enjoys creating and designing in many mediums and has done so for over 50 years. Texture, color, pattern, and light play an important role in what she designs be it in Oil, pastel, watercolor, photography, collage, glass, polymer clay or jewelry. She enjoys working, manipulating, and creating with her hands and experiments to see if she can come out with a pleasing artistic piece. “It reminds me of being a child at play. I just enjoy having fun along with it being therapeutic for me”. Marlene is active in the arts and enjoys teaching. “I enjoy watching others learn and get excited about creating their own works. As adults, we forget to have fun. I encourage students to do just that; you must enjoy what you are doing to be creative and then it shows in your works.” Marlene has taught at the National Park Community College, in Continuing Education and at the Arkansas Arts Center in Little Rock. She also enjoys traveling and teaching workshops. She is a registered teacher through the Arts on Tour with the Arkansas Arts Council Little Rock, AR.

Comments from Others
I am touched by Richard Stephen's comment on my iris painting in the Brush Strokes Exhibit at the Woodlands in Hot Springs Village, AR in April 2019.
First Place Attitude Iris Marlene Gremillion " I have always admired Marlene’s florals. They glow and have a translucence seldom found in most flower paintings. The ambitious size of the piece speaks of the courage and confidence it takes to create a special work. Bravo!"
