Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, Still Dragging, and Gone Bad...

 Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

!

For the first time ever I uploaded a Work in Progress to my website.  I am so pleased with my latest Kendall Expressions painting that I wanted to give an internet preview!  I hope to have it done in a few days and then I will upload the final picture for sale or prints!

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler

Clyde is better but I am still dragging and neither one of us has come up with a new funny but there is another great one on Facebook!  Picture this.  A man opens his refrigerator and a gun is aimed at him. 

The caption reads, "Honey, the chicken has gone bad."

Now that one really put a big smile on my weary face!  I do believe in the old saying that laughter is the best medicine.  I need a truck load right now.



Don't forget about The Blue Ridge Discovery Center that Clyde works closely with to promote this beautiful mountain region!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, Spring Painting, and How do you like your Emails?

 Blue Ridge Parkway Artist



I have had a hard time getting to my blog today.  I think I am coming down with a cold and am not moving very fast.  I did get to paint but it was hard standing up.  I think I will get this done and take it easy for the rest of the evening.

Cheers!  Stay Well!

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler

Clyde and I have been talking about the barrage of emails we get every day.  Emails are sort of like eggs.  

Some people send stringy ones.  They email you over and over again in the same day.  They can't seem to wait for an answer.  

Some people send hard boiled ones.  These are ones that are so loaded with information that it looks like they have been cooking their thoughts for a long time.

Clyde and I like the over easy ones.  These are rather short emails from people that don't expect you to answer in ten minutes or even the same day.  

I have one correspondent that never answers right away.  Sometimes he answers in a day or so and sometimes it is a week.  I never worry about those kind of emails.  

Too many hard boiled ones today.  I will get to them tomorrow.



Don't forget about The Blue Ridge Discovery Center that Clyde works closely with to promote this beautiful mountain region!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, Work in Progress, and A Great Funny!

 Blue Ridge Parkway Artist


I wasn't able to get to my new Kendall Expressions painting today, but I did yesterday so I am going to upload a "work in progress" file here!


The link to my Kendall Expressions folder on my website is below the image.  Please check out these intense works!

 IMG_2200

 Kendall Expression Work in progress

I am real excited about this new painting!  I am attempting to add intense visual energy and excitement to this popular Volvo 2015 car.  This is the first stage and is a detail.  When it is done I will post the whole work.

Here is the link to my Kendall Expressions series on my Website!

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler

I don't have a funny of my own and Clyde has not been feeling well but there was a great one on Facebook!  I laughed out loud!

There was a picture of an adorable baby in a sink and the caption read, "If you see something my Mom put on Facebook, remind her that I am still in the sink."  Love it!  I have over 2000 Facebook friends, a fan page, and a Community page.  I get such a kick out of sharing gems like that one!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, Favorite Kendall Expression Painting, and Where are those Pigs?

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler

Longevity runs in my family so I have been trying to get my body in better shape without hurting myself.  My Dad was real big on swimming so I try to swim once a week but it is not a weight bearing exercise so I walk and Line Dance.  It has been my mistake not to stretch before activities and I have discovered some muscle problems due to this mistake.


A while back I realized I could not touch my toes so I have worked hard to gradually stretch out those muscles and now I can touch my toes.


Now I am trying Yoga with a DVD and it is quite an eye opener!  The teacher can sit with her legs crossed and touching the floor.  I can't even get near the floor.  She says to sit on a pillow so hips are higher than knees.  Doesn't help one bit!


I am determined to get those knees down but those pigs aren't  flying by the window!  My right knee is a little sore today so I have to take a break.


Maybe one of these days I will get those knees down and a whole slew of pigs will fly right by!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, New Kendall Expressions painting, and I can't Believe I forgot...

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist


Please click on my latest Youtube!  Trying to get another one done  today.


Not much to say today.  So much computer work that I am determined to get away for a while so this will be short and sweet.  I am very excited about my new Expressions paintings and I will get in there soon to work on my latest!  I am very please with The Eye of The Squirrel and have added it to my website!

 The Eye of The Squirrel is an intense, expressive painting from my series Kendall Expressions. My work has always had Expressionistic elements combined with Impressionistic elements. In these works I am emphasizing my expressive side. I am very pleased with the look in the squirrel's eye and how the animal seems to sink into an other worldly space.

 

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler


I can't believe that I forgot that Line Dancing was cancelled Tuesday  night.  It is a half hour drive to Pulaski and I made that trip for nothing.  Clyde said that must have been a short class. 

I hang appointment notices from the kitchen doorway and mark all over the calender.  I try to read as much Spanish as I have time for on the internet and still can't find my glasses or remember some important things said to me like class cancellation.


I guess I will just have to keep remembering the saying on Facebook that it isn't age that is causing memory problems, it is just that I have so much information over the years that I can't keep track of it all.


That sounds good!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, Lithographs, and The Military guys are after Me...

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist



My artwork takes me in many directions.  This June there will be an article on me in The Inflectionist which is an online magazine that is hard copy twice a year.  Most of my work consists of oil paintings about The Blue Ridge Mountains but I also work in many other mediums, styles, and subjects.

Here is one of my favorite lithographs.  The girl has an especially pensive, beautiful look on her face and the light models the right side of the form and then the girl seems to flatten out into a mystical space.

The second one has been hand colored for an expressive effect.  Most lithographs are hand colored due to the difficulties in printing them in color.

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler


Scammers to the right of me.  Scammers to the left of me.  Well, actually they are right in front of me on the internet and talking to me on my answering machine.

I asked Clyde to work on one of them for me.  I keep getting a call about a mandatory credit card authorization or something like that.  I get that message almost every day so I asked Clyde to ask people at work if there was anything to this call.  I am not calling them back for fear of some kind of sneaky scam.

The other one I am getting practically every day is laughable.  Good looking guys that are in the military and want to get to know me.  I look like an angel and they are captivated by my smile.   They want to captivate my bank account!


Yesterday's scam was especially funny.  Two Google+ requests from two different guys in the military but the picture is the same.  One is further back so I guess the scammer will think the picture they stole will look like a different person.  Two scams for the theft of one picture. What a hoot!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, One of my Few Watercolor paintings, and Another Computer Moment...

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist


I was hoping to get a lot done on my latest Kendall Expression painting that is in the Youtube but my back kept me from working.  Hope to get a lot done tomorrow.  Here is one of my few watercolors. 

I haven't met the media that I don't like but I don't paint a lot of watercolors.  They are beautiful but I like oil paint the best!

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler



I hate to beat a dead horse but when it comes to computers I just wish I could beat it and still have it work.  I keep trying to remember how useful it is and resist the temptation to shove it out the window, but it is difficult.

Clyde is better at it than I am but he still has to wonder at how instructions that are made for dummies still don't work.  I will never forget how I figured out that I can stabilize my Youtube video and then have to  add music next or my voice will not be heard. 

If I make any other modifications before adding music the voice over is gone.   I had a young helper try to figure that one out and he gave up.  I figured it out  by accident. Pretty sure I mentioned this incident before but I am still harping on it.

Right now I need some more accidents as I try to figure out annotations on Youtube.  I followed the instructions to add a link to my website and nothing happened.  ARGH!!!!!!

 

Whoever works out these programs so computer dummies can use them is not doing a good job!

Here is one of my domestic cat paintings.  I think the title says it all!  I am working on some more abstract animal paintings.  This is one of my representational ones.  I always have an expressionistic flare to all my work but in this one I stuck more closely to what I was working from.

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler


I have always enjoyed jokes, word play, and other kinds of humor and really get into laughing!  As I have said before Clyde supplies most of the funnies for my blog but I do come up with some of my own and look for others on the internet.

Yesterday wasn't very funny.  I wrote about how I was looking forward to Line Dance Class and then after I published the blog I threw my back out and missed class.  At first I thought it wasn't going to be bad but the pain got to be too much to be able to drive so I missed class.

It is a lot better today so I am hoping I can get to the Thursday class in Blacksburg. 


Neither of us came up with anything funny yesterday but I saw something on another site that I thought was great and reflected how I felt.

An apple a day will keep anyone away if you throw it hard enough!  Nobody threw anything at my back yesterday but it sure kept me away from my fun.

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, New Suggestion Paintings, and Wear a Helmet...

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist


I am very excited about my latest Kendall Expression painting!  I hope to have it in my portfolio in a few days.  These paintings are getting more and more intense and the color modulation in acrylic are bursting on to the canvas!  I am so glad I started this series and will be doing a number of them before I get back to more mountain vistas!


Here is my latest Suggestion painting!  I am real pleased with the pensive look.

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler


Yesterday we had a great time visiting relatives!  It is so good to get together and yak!  One of my favorite things about the Word Man is he is a great conversationalist and the most knowledgeable person I have ever known. 

We were having a great time yakking away when I saw more relatives coming up the driveway.  This relative was sitting on the rim of the back of a truck while his son drove and the other kids were either inside or in the truck bed with him.

I was kind of surprised that he would ride that way.  I would be afraid of falling off if the truck hit a bump.  This guy has a sense of humor much like Clydes.  His response was people are getting so cautious about everything that one of these days we will have to wear a helmet when we brush our teeth.
