About Melissa
I have been teaching art ever since I was a graduate student, beginning in 1995, and I taught full time at Hendrix College for the past 17 years. I also taught freshmen and senior seminar courses at the college, which gave me years of experience advising first-time college students in their academic and career goals, as well as advising senior art majors in how to develop a coherent body of work based on a central theme. Art is my greatest joy to make, and to teach!

I teach lessons online from my home studio. I give technical instruction and demonstrations first, then "small-bite" practice sessions before giving an assignment to complete. I like to incorporate relevant art history into my lessons as well. A typical lesson plan would include a warm-up, a demonstration, and then guided practice, finishing with a take-home assignment. What sets me apart is that I customize my assignments to the student's interests and goals. This makes learning much more engaging and fun. The lessons are for young adults and older who want to learn a new creative technique or refine a skill.

Melissa is able to communicate well with a novice textile printing as I was. I got a lot from the 6 session course.
Melissa Gill was a supportive and inventive professor that guided me through 3 wonderful years of my college career! She always made time to nurture my interests and work with me to achieve my learning goals.
Melissa is an extremely experienced artist and art professor who is able to teach many diverse mediums and offer insight into historical and contemporary art. She is also an incredibly nice person who is a joy to work with.
