Where is that White Shirt?

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please click on my latest Youtube.

 

My Line Dance Group gets into the paper every now and then and we have a number of outfits we wear for these photo shoots.  My favorite is the Christmas one with red shirts, black pants, and white fur trim on the collars and neck.

Today we are going to wear white shirts and blue jeans.  The only white shirts I have are those I wear for Line Dancing performances and pictures.  I don’t think I look good in white and I couldn’t keep white clean if my life depended on it.  I have been known to get a bad spot on a white garment as soon as I put it on.

 

Anyway, the search is on.  Must be somewhere in my over stuffed closet.  I have until 5:30.  Better get to it!

Well, that was Different!

I make very plain meals due to dietary problems but today I tried a new recipe for pot roast that called for a cup of wine in the sauce plus bouillon.  That sauce made the potatoes taste great!  I will definitely make that again.  It doesn’t call for flour which my husband can’t eat so it is perfect for us!

I didn’t get much work done today but I did make a good pot roast!  Now it is time to sit in front of the computer and try not to hit is with an ax!  Cheers!

Beautiful Girl Drawings by a Blue Ridge Parkway Artist and Special Promotions!

Beautiful Girl Drawings by Kendall Kessler

I have a few more Beautiful Girls to show you and then I will more on to another aspect of my work.  These are clothed.  Sometimes artists like to dress up their models.  

If I were wealthy I would get back to working from a live model but modeling is a hard job and their fee is high as it should be.  My husband won’t do it for me and I don’t blame him and I am not going to model for myself with mirrors.  Too awkward and too embarrassing! 

Anyway, I am proud of the ones I have done and especially proud of my best-seller on The Mindy Project!  I am so pleased that the show has been renewed for a third season!  Yea!!!!!!

 

This is another example of my work where I prefer the sketch to the pastel painting.  The immediacy in the sketch and the strong contrast is more to my liking.  I have always liked a wide range of values in my work.  Renoir once said that black was the queen of colors!

I found another great ghost story on  Local Asheville Ghost Stories website!

 

Battle Mansion is located near The Grove Park Inn.  Supposedly, it is haunted by a servant girl named Alice.

They say she either fell or was pushed down the stairs.  The mansion is also haunted by the former owner, Samuel Battle.  He has been seen wearing a top hat and formal attire.

When the mansion was the location of 13WLOSTV Alice was often seen by employees.  She wears a long, old fashioned dress.  Sarah Harrison, the writer of this report talked with two employees of Grove Park Inn and one of them swore that some wires hanging from the ceiling were swaying back and forth on their own.   The other worker said he was grabbed when he walked down the stairs. The man that grabbed him fit the description of Samuel Battle.  He was presented a picture of the doctor and is sure of his claim.  SPOOKY!

The mansion was demolished in 2006.

Kessler Ant Diner –  Open 24/7!

Every year when the weather gets warm we have hoard of ants in our kitchen.  We have tried everything to get rid of them without success.  Ant traps don’t work and we have tried a number of safe remedies that work at first and then the ants are back in full force.  One summer talcom powder did the trick for a while and then they were back.

This summer we have a remedy that consists of putting a few drops of a glucose solution with poison on small squares of paper.  The ants eat the solution and take the poison back to the nest.  This one was working great for a while!

Now they are all just sitting in a circle around the drops having a great time!

Not with the Shoes on!

I made it to the lake and swam with a great friend!  I recently bought some slides that are like shoes with holes in the sides and are very light.  I don’t like the feel of the lake bottom so I kept them on at first.  Then I started my laps and took them right off.  It was like having someone pull me from behind.  Beautiful day today!
