Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Happy Again and Near Impossible…

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

My latest painting took a nose dive yesterday and I wasn’t sure how to approach it today. So I just painted and didn’t think about what I was trying to achieve this time and then it took off!

As usual, they only seem to work out when I don’t exactly know how I got to the successful stage. 

Looking forward to the next session!  Joyful anticipation is always so much better than the frustration that goes along with the job. 

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Today I achieved another difficult effect in my current painting that I always consider next door to impossible. 

Last time I mentioned that phrase, Clyde wanted to know where Impossible is located. Argh! 

I wanted him to see the effect that is next door to impossible in this painting. 

Are you getting closer to Impossible?  Do you have a zip code yet? 

No, but there is some paint on the palette that might find you for an address. 

Time to leave the studio?

Oh yes.

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Looking Forward to a New Location


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Not much to say except we are very excited about the house we may be moving into this summer!  Artist and writers need a lot of space that we don’t have right now.  The house we are looking at will be perfect for us!  Now we need to get busy and fix up the one we have. 

Not looking forward to that but it has to be done.  I think my painting time is going to shrink even more than now. Ouch!  Oh well, I think I can get going with my latest one tomorrow.  First stage is done and now to get to the second, hopefully without cussing.  I never know. 

Anyway, please check out my latest youtube above. This time I was planning on an abstract but when it was done I thought some birds would make for great accents. I like the way it turned out! 

As you can see by my selections from my portfolio, I am really missing the shore so much!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

This one is from my last Youtube but I thought I would leave it up for anyone that did not see it. I love to laugh!

Clyde and I snack a lot, especially after supper.  Last night I couldn’t decide what I wanted. 

I like to complain about these things to Clyde because he usually has a goofy answer for me and, as usual, he did not disappoint. 

I can’t decide.  I have carrot cake, brownies, and cookies. 

Eat all of them.

All of them? You mean I should smash the brownie into the carrot cake and put a cookie on top?

Sure, but on top of that, add some raisins and call it a healthy snack. 

Yeah, right. I think my scale will disagree with you if I have that kind of healthy snack. 

I think I will get some popcorn – no butter.

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist has started another Claytor Lake Painting and Raisins on Top…


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

I started a new lake painting today and it was quite a different experience. I don’t know if this pandemic has me down or I just wanted to try a different approach to the first layer, but it really is wild.  I am hoping to get a more complicated system in color with this one from the start and it really is colorful right now. 

It was not fun.  As I have mentioned before a lot of artists talk about the first layer as fun and then it gets difficult.  My first layer usually is fun, so this is definitely a different type of session for me. 

I will see what happens next!  Painting keeps me going. 

Be sure to check out my latest video above!  I now have over 900 followers!  Lots of great comments.

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Pleased with Claytor Lake painting


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

I am very pleased with my latest painting of Claytor Lake and I am considering painting more of this great park.  This is only the second painting I have done of one my favorite places in Southwest Virginia.  This one is so close to exactly what I was after which is a nice experience, but I do have plans for a slightly different approach to my next one.  Always learning, always improving. 

As I have said over and over again it would be boring if I had a set way of painting that never changed.  My opinion.  I do think there are artists that do not change their methods and there is nothing wrong with that. 

I have to keep on progressing even though I’ll bet a lot of people don’t see that much difference, but I do, and it is an exciting process!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Pleased to sell a print of Dominion Skating Rink


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Where in the world did Friday go?  Way too much to do today to get to this blog but I like to put out two a week so here goes. 

I am too tired to gab and I still have a lot of work to do so I am going to leave up the artwork from the last blog except for the first one which I am replacing with a print sale of Dominion to a great Pennsylvania patron!

I miss that rink very much. When my son was young I took him and his friends there once or twice a week and I love to skate.  One time my son won the limbo contest! 

Another rink opened years later in Christiansburg and it closed due to legal problems.   I wish another one would open up.  Anyway, have a great weekend!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Pleased with Current Claytor Lake painting…


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

I am at the final stage on my Claytor Lake painting and it is going well.  Usually, I am afraid my final changes will hurt what I have but this time I seem to know just what to do to get to that end.  That is a nice experience! 

I am going to paint more of Claytor Lake which is one of my favorite places in Southwest Virginia.  Lots of wonderful memories and I know that positive feeling will be expressed in paint.  I can’t explain how that happens, but it does! 

I think I am going to have to paint another large one.  The small scale is nice sometimes, but when it turns out well I am always sad it is not on a large canvas. 

Oh well.  Always an adventure!  Check out this week’s youtube of another Pittsburgh skyline painting!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Excited about Wintergreen painting and A Pet Rock is Happier…


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Sometimes a painting experience is over the top! My latest Blue Ridge painting looked so good in the second stage that I was worried I would lose the strong effect in the next phase.  Was I ever wrong!  I am achieving the most complex painting that I have ever done and I will be shoving any impediment to work to get to it tomorrow.

I don’t think extreme attention to detail necessarily makes for a successful painting.  There will always be so much more to painting than trying to represent what I see that can’t really be represented due to the constant change of light and shade throughout the day. That is why I work from a photograph that I took of a specific moment that I want to embellish.

I put myself into the work with decisions about color and texture that are sometimes in the photograph and sometimes my reaction to the paint as it is applied to the surface. 

Anyway, back to detail.  I do like to get as much detail as possible in these atmospheric landscapes because of the beautiful colors that occur as I work on tricky areas.  It is not really about the detail. It is about the color and I am getting more color than ever before! 

Looking forward to tomorrow’s session.

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

I doubt that everyone remembers the Pet Rock Craze from the seventies.  The guy that came up with this crazy pet idea walked away with 15 million for it.  The rocks came in boxes with air holes.  Anyway, it was quite an amazing marketing trend that didn’t last long.

Well the other day I was going back to work on all my computer chores and Clyde said have fun. 

I jokingly said I have a lot of fun working on the computer but I’m not sure the computer is happy about it. 

I have seen pet rocks have more fun than computers. 

I’m sure if a computer could talk it would agree!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Pleased with Progress on Wintergreen painting and There will be dishes…


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

I had a lot of success with my new painting of a Wintergreen sunset yesterday and decided I should put it in my Stages of my Artwork collection.  I am intending to completely cover it with another layer that will look very much like it does now but with even more complicated systems of color and texture. 

I have learned so much about the technique that is the best approach for my expressions but I keep changing with every painting and there is something quite different about the color interaction in the mountains this time.  I have always found that constant flucuation of warm and cool colors in the Blue Ridge ranges to be especially difficult so I am very excited that it is working out better than ever this time and I don’t want to lose what I have right now so the file will be preserved. 

Looking forward to the next session!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Now that Clyde has retired from Tech he is great about helping me with the housework.  He is also trying to straighten up his mountains of research in our computer room that actually has a bed for a guest but can’t be used without an overhaul of all the stuff that is on it and under it.  Oh well, he keeps at it. 

Anyway, we share the dishes. We take turns doing the lunch and supper detail.  On Sunday we eat out.  Last Sunday I decided to do the lunch dishes which includes dishes from breakfast and snacks.  We are probably the biggest snackers on the planet. 

I told him I would do the lunch dishes and he would do the supper dishes and, as God is my witness, there will be supper dishes.  It doesn’t matter whether or not we cook, they still breed like rabbits.

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Pleased to Return to Latest Blue Ridge Painting and Staying Alive…


Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Well, as usual I am wondering what happened to Monday.  Someone shot another day out of a cannon.  I was very glad to get back to work on my latest Blue Ridge Parkway painting and it is still coming along.  I had an art wrestling time with it last week but I think I am over that and looking forward to what will probably be the last layer. 

I can see why experts like to x-ray paintings.  All my layers are intricate systems of brushwork and come completely together at the end.  I didn’t take photos of different stages this time.  I like to do that but it slipped my mind.  So far, I don’t think I am losing very successful parts. 

It has not been one of those paintings that are a terrific struggle.  This one has been like a nice  ride down the river with just a  few bumps.  The tough ones keep me on my toes but it is nice to have one that does not fight with me that much.  Be sure to check out my Monday video above!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

I love comedy!  The other day I was watching a great stand up comedian on a show I don’t usually watch and he was cracking me up. 

The last thing he said was he saw a woman with pants that had the word yoga on them.  His comment was the pants may say yoga but the woman in them  says McDonalds. 

I mentioned that to Clyde and said I had seen a lot of girls in yoga pants that say McDonalds but I don’t think I am one of them. 

I agree. 

You are a smart husband that wants to stay alive. 

That’s right.

I am trying to tear myself away from my latest painting.  It has worked out real well and now is the time to quit before I over work it but the changes I did today worked perfectly!  One good think about impasto paintings is you get to the point where you either have to quit or get a spoon to add more paint. 

I think one more day will do it and then I will get back to some Skyline Beauty paintings and maybe some Suggestions paintings and Center of My Mind paintings.  Looking forward to not smelling mineral spirits for a while!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

I learn a lot from Clyde.  He is a walking encyclopedia.  I hardly ever stump him.  I did the other day.  He was talking to me about a variety of tree that was outside our car window while we waited for Alan and his girlfriend.  There were a lot of Dogwood trees next to the tree he was talking about.  It occurred to me that Dogwood is a rather strange name so I asked him how it got it’s name. 

He didn’t know so I decided that maybe it was named long, long ago right before people noticed that trees had bark just like dogs.  I am surprised Clyde did not get out of the car and walk away.

That was a bad one!  I guess I had better stick to the Wordman’s humor.
