"Introductory Drawing Color Pencil Workshop"
Recent participant had this to say about her drawing workshop experience:
"Mellissa's drawing class was a fantastic experience for me! I have been painting awhile but felt I needed help with my drawing in order to progress. Mellissa gave me a great foundation in drawing and is a really good teacher. She is a very gifted drawer and a good teacher! She taught me many of the basic techniques and fundamentals and helped me complete a really great colored pencil drawing. Mellissa provides a very relaxing atmosphere and she was a joy to be around. I would recommend her class to anyone interested in learning more about drawing" K. Smith, Huntsville, AL

Have you a desire to paint a picture lately? In one morning or evening, you can create a beautiful painting and at the same time, enjoy a memorable time with your friends, co-workers, and family! I am the Artist, Mellissa Meeks, and I am offering "Rather Be Painting" art workshops, to provide an opportunity for people to get together to laugh, learn, and let their creativity free and paint with her on pre-sketched canvases!
