Blue Ridge Parkway Artist, People Paintings, and Hawk Migration!
Blue Ridge Parkway Artist
I
am pleased to blog about my people paintings. They are very important
to me. My two favorite models are my son and my husband.
I
have done a number of paintings of both of them over the years and plan
to do a new one of my husband when I can find some time and he is not
out studying nature on a mountain top!
This
painting is of Alan when he was a few months old. Clyde did not like
to sit in a rocking chair so when he put him to sleep he would lie down
and rock him.
I noticed that almost every time he held him in his arms, Alan would go
to sleep. I guess he associated Daddy's arms with bed time.
This
painting is of Alan when he was a toddler. He liked to stare out the
window. I am especially pleased with the energetic brush work in this
painting.
Frank Webb commented at a competition that I was able to
weave paint together in a very impressive way.
I won one of the cash awards at the show.
Life with The Bird and Word Man - Clyde Kessler
Fall
is Hawk migration time and hundreds are flying over! Two of Clyde's
friends, Tom Moser and Todd Frederickson led a hawk watch at Rocky Knob
with a class and there were 500 hawks, mostly Broad-winged hawks!
