Tiger Stare  Original 20″ x 16″ Acrylic Painting   $670

Prints on Paper, Metal, Canvas, Greeting Cards, Pillows, !phone and galaxy phone Cases Available at KENDALL KESSLER ART

 Tiger Stare 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 tiger’s eyes and the linear patterns of the stripes. The painting is on stretched canvas without frame.

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

 

I have mentioned two bruises I cannot account for and both times my husband had a quip of how I am probably smacking him at night to stop his snoring.  He is still congested and that is usually the only time he snores.

Well, yesterday I mentioned that my thumb on my left hand is sore.  Of course his explanation is that I am probably poking him the eye since the hand slap and kick didn’t stop the snoring.

I seriously doubt I am attacking my husband when I am sleeping but his quips do make me laugh!

 Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please click on my latest Youtube!  I was able to make one yesterday after all!  The guys changed their minds and went for a walk.

I am excited about getting to the third layer of another Blue Ridge Parkway autumn painting!  The second layer is just about dry.  Most of my paintings are done in three layers, some more than three.

 

Here are two more favorite florals!

 

 

Shadows on Sunflowers  Original Oil Painting  has been Sold

Prints on Paper, Canvas, Metal, Pillows, !phone and galaxy phone cases Available at   KENDALL KESSLER ART

“Shadows on Sunflowers” is an intimate look at some sunflowers in a vase against a backdrop of shifting light. The swirling textures enliven the surface and the colors are intense. The brushwork is complicated and sensuous.

I have always been fascinated with the colors of light and shade. I remember reading somewhere that many people consider warm and cool colors together to be like the music of the spheres.

Prints on Paper, Canvas, Metal, Pillows, !phone and galaxy phone cases Available at   KENDALL KESSLER ART

North Albemarle, McLean, VA is one of my series of garden paintings in McLean where I am from. This is a low-level impasto painting with a constant variation in color. The mood is cheerful and the surface is complex. The painting is in a silver-colored metal frame.  

 

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Clyde is very good about helping me with a stir fry meal I like to make.  I am not much of a cook but this is one meal I make that I really like!  I was extremely tired last night and when he asked me which pot I was going to use to par boil the broccoli and snow peas, I said the big round one. 

I cracked up but he was not amused.  I wonder if there are any other shaped pots.

Well, I was going to make another Youtube video today…

Please click on my latest Youtube.  I hope to put up another one tomorrow.

 

I was going to make another Youtube video of my work today but both my guys are home. They usually go bird-watching  on Sunday afternoon but this time they are both parked in front of the TV watching a movie.

I definitely don’t want TV noise for my background music.  I will get it done tomorrow.  Time to paint!

So much to do before I head out to Draper for a Christmas Line Dance Performance!  We do a lot of Christmas dances and I hope this one goes well.  It is amazing how things can mess up.  One time I was so close to some sort of box on stage that I nearly tripped!  This stage is small so I hope no one falls off.  Cheers!

Here are two more Favorite Florals

Hanging Beauty  Original      Oil pastel painting

Prints on Paper, Canvas, or Metal and Greeting Cards Available at   KENDALL KESSLER ART

 

Hanging Beauty is an intense oil pastel painting of flowers on our veranda. The strong light effect creates a beautiful atmosphere and great warm/cool color contrast. My husband, Clyde Kessler, is a well-known naturalist in the New River Valley and in addition to his bird and butterfly knowledge, he is also very knowledgeable about flowers and good at growing them. He has the green thumb in the family. Mine is usually covered in oil paint.

 

Hanging Beauty  Original      Oil pastel painting

Prints on Paper, Canvas, or Metal and Greeting Cards Available at   KENDALL KESSLER ART

 

Rose Start is a glowing oil pastel of our rose bush when it was first starting out. We have a small white fence around it to protect it. I have always been fascinated with the look of white objects in the evening. They seem to glow from with-in and I captured that look in this work. Carnival Evening by Henri Rousseau is a great example of this effect. I especially enjoy looking at that painting for the use of the white that creates a magical effect.

 

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Like any married couple we have learned a lot about our different backgrounds over the years.  One thing my mother did that Clyde’s mother did not do was repeat helpful sayings.  I heard these so many times that they got to be quite irritating and the most irritating thing was I was too stubborn to apply them to my life.   The one I hate the most to this day is Penny wise and Pound foolish.   I am amazed at the number of times I have chosen the cheap route that ended up costing me more later.  I actually make Clyde come with me to the store to help me buy certain items so I won’t get stuck with the cheap one that caught my eye.  He always gets the better item, usually the medium priced one.

 

Anyway I like to change some of those sayings and the other night when I was fooling with laundry late in the evening I said to Clyde, “Women’s work is never done and it ain’t no fun.”  I think that is an improvement on that one.

But the House is still Standing…

Please click on my Youtube!

 

I think I have mentioned before that I am some what of a freak of nature, a girl that does not like to shop.  My husband hates to shop and our son isn’t into it either so that is why we are still at home.  It takes a lot more than bargains to get us out of here.  I think if the house burned down we would have to visit some stores.  

Have fun everyone!  I hope you get some great deals!
