I am very excited about my new series, Suggestions!  Here is the latest one plus two more floral favorites!

Wading  Original Acrylic Painting Not for Sale

Prints on Paper, Canvas, Metal, Greeting Cards, I-Phone and Galaxy Phone Cases Available at   KENDALL KESSLER ART

Wading is another sensuous, colorful painting from my series, Suggestions. I am starting with an abstract expressionist surface and then looking for forms that appear in the paint. This time I saw a nude leaning forward so I brought her out and put her water. I think the peaceful effect is beautiful.

Hybrid Rose   Original  5" x 7" Oil Painting   $75

Hybrid Beauty is a small gem painting with intricate color nuances and sensuous brushwork. This is a painting for people that like a constant change of texture and color though out a painting. The painting is in a solid wood molded frame.

Life with The Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler

I am so glad I married someone that makes me laugh and he said the other night that he was glad he married someone that likes to laugh.  We haven't had to call 911 yet but I do get to the point that I need to stop and breath!   Whenever I find something on Facebook that I think is a real crack up I show him.  The other day there was a great one that I know Clyde can truly relate to.  He has worked with the Forest Service for many years and has had a few close calls with bears and one time he had to confront one running at him.  He knew what to do so thankfully I am not a widow.

Anyway on Facebook there was a picture of a bear running toward the person that took the picture.  The caption read, "Not a runner?"  Now you are!

Nude Girl Drawings by a Blue Ridge Parkway Artist and 31 Stomachs...

Nude Girl Drawings by Kendall Kessler

I want to start off with one of my Youtube videos!  I am adding one a week so I want to be sure to get them out to the public!

Here are two more selections in black and white that I decided to make color versions of.  What a great experience to look at a completed drawing and re-interpret it in color!  

As I have mentioned before, some of them I like better in color and some in black and white.  Art is always an experience for me that can't be explained.

When I taught in the Art Department at Radford Univerisity I would try to explain Art to students but I found the only way I could really explain it was to have them do it, which is why my Art Appreciation classes were "Hands On".  

When students had to make visual decisions then they started to catch on to what Art is all about.  Drawing is integral to the discipline but Art is so much more then reproducing nature.

In this case I prefer the color painting to the black and white drawing.  The color accents are strong and I like the light effect better in the pastel one. 

Life with the Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler

Last year I decided to take off a lot of years from our ages.  I asked my husband how it felt to be thirty years old!  The only response I got was a sour look.

Yesterday was his birthday so I asked him how it felt to turn thirty-one.  This year I got a sour look and a sour comment.

You mean turn 31 stomachs when they look at me?

Ha Ha.  No, that is not what I meant.
