Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Still into Wildflower paintings and What will that go with?

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Not my favorite day but they are all good in some ways.  Didn’t get to paint this morning and now the light is not right and I have been having a very hard time with a huge blood blister on the under side of my tongue that started on  Saturday. It popped the next day but has been so sore I have had a hard time talking and eating.  I finally gave in today and took some advil.

I don’t like to take medication of any kind but if I have a hard time eating, then I am very unhappy.  I eat something every few hours.  I have first and second breakfast just like a hobbit so strong pain when eating had to go!

Anyway I am having a great time with another wildflower painting and looking forward to working on it tomorrow.  It took a bad turn yesterday but now it is back on track. I’ll bet that makes a lot of sense.  To think there are some people that don’t think artists are crazy.  LOL!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Clyde made a very interesting purchase that reminded me of a joke I saw on Facebook.

A woman was telling her husband he was not going out with a polka dot face mask and a plaid shirt.

Well Clyde bought the cover of his book I illustrated on a face mask.  Now what will that go with?

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Excited over Latest Wildflower painting and The doors will Close…

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

I am really getting into wildflowers right now and looking forward to tomorrow when I can get to the second stage of my latest one!  The one in the video is of wildflowers in beautiful Wildwood Park, Radford, Va. 

My latest one is not a specific place, it is based on wildflower fields I have seen with my own improvisation.  I truly understand what Edward Hopper said one time, “I am best when I improvise.”  Artists build up so many images in their minds and it is great when they come out on canvas. 

Sometimes I like to stick closely to what I see and other times I like to elaborate on what I see and sometimes there are no recognizable shapes – music without words. 

Anyway, lots of computer work to do so I better get busy.  Again, I have included a link to  a painting on face masks!

Cheers and please view my video and the doctor’s video if you haven’t seen them yet.

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Clyde is on our church council and they are having Zoom meetings online about possibly having services again.  People will be required to wear masks and maintain a safe distance. 

It is a small congregation so that should not be a problem. Clyde told me about their thoughts on the matter after the meeting was over.

Well, I guess we can’t have coffee and snacks after the service.

Uh oh. That’s the end of the church. 

Ha ha.  I think we can manage a service without coffee afterwards. 

You never know.  LOL!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Missing Mom and The Perfect gift!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

What a beautiful Mother’s Day!  My son bought me a box of candy.  Gee, I wonder how he thought of that for a present? Could it be that I always have a bag of Russel Stovers pecan delights on the top of my fridge?  Or could it be I am never out of fun size peanut M & M’s? 

He probably noticed over the years that I sort of have a sweet tooth. What an understatement! I will never forget one time when he was a toddler and I sat down for a second to inhale a fun size snickers bar.  He stood right in front of  me and proudly grabbed the paper and put in the trash can. 

Anyway,  I hope all the mothers out there have a great day! The sun is shining here.  I am selling some face masks so I have again included a link for Winding Magenta.

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

Well, Clyde gave me the perfect gift!  We have been worried about the lack of toilet paper since we are getting to our last rolls. 

Then he remembered that this great small store and fast food restaurant nearby had single rolls in the past available. 

He brought home a bag of stuff and then said he bought me a great gift.

I looked in the bag and saw a roll of toilet paper! 

Wow!  You are the greatest husband ever! 

I know.

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

What a dramatic change in weather!  So glad I was able to get the groceries before it starts raining.  Winter weather tonight!  Yikes!  I will be glad to see some warm weather soon.  I can’t go to the beach but it will be nice to get out and walk with Clyde in the park. 

I am real pleased to sell a number of prints to a great California patron!  This time two face masks, a t-shirt, and a tote bag was purchased! The patron that purchased these items recently purchased Wildwood Beauty.  Great to sell an original and household prints to the same patron!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

We are having an awful time with our T.V. We have to use two remotes.  One to turn it on and off and one to change channels. The provider that I switched to required an update box with new remotes and ever since then we have had trouble. 

The remote for the T.V. in the living room is the one that is supposed to be used but it became very hard to change channels so we got one from another T.V. and it changes channels but does not turn it off and on. 

I told Clyde I thought this T.V. was made in a laboratory in China. 

Yes, and it escaped to torture us.

LOL!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Shooing Bees and Don’t buy a large Freezer…

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Such a beautiful day!  Lots of people outside having some fun.  We took a great walk and plugged carpenter bee holes in our roof.  The bees flew around and I don’t think I would like to hear what they had to say if they could talk. 

They look just like bumblebees but they don’t sting, just cuss out people that mess up their homes.  They prefer to make these hole homes in dead wood, so, of course, they like our roof over the trees.  I guess they are just going to have to get used to homes with a little sap here and there. 

So much to do on the internet.  I had better get busy.  Cheers!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

My mother passed away over a year ago and I miss her very much.  She and I had a lot in common.  There were certain things she did that I didn’t think I would do but I think I am turning into my Mom.  I have heard that happens a lot.

She froze everything and I have started doing that.  I make desserts that Clyde can’t eat and I don’t want them to spoil before I finish them so I freeze half. 

My Dad thought Mom over did the freezer thing.  He would often say if he was ever missing, look in the freezer.   Ha ha. 

I told Clyde I thought I was turning into Mom. 

Don’t buy a big freezer. 

That’s probably a good idea.  LOL!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist has Face Masks and Waiting for the Noodles…

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

Well, I never thought I would live to see the day that I am selling prints of my paintings on face masks!  I have sold my prints on a lot of household items and clothes but now my work is on face masks. 

I have included a link to my most popular wildflower painting, Natural Rhythm on a mask below.  They are $15.00.

Anyway, I am very pleased with the first stage of my latest wildflower painting.  I am taking a different approach to this one and I will just see what happens.  So far it has a nice swaying motion that I like very much. 

I may upload a first stage of it and I may not.  Sometimes I do that but this one has a lot of work to do and I don’t know if I want prints of the first layer available.  Oh well! The studio is getting cleaned up and organized at the same time!  Now that is a first!

Cheers to everyone!  We will get through this.  Be sure to view the Safe Grocery shopping video below if you haven’t seen it yet!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

This virus is devastating. There was only one small bag of one of our staples, Russell Stover pecan delights at kroger! We will have to ration them. Also, for two weeks I have had to eat organic regular spaghetti instead of Angel Hair!

What next? Big time LOL!!! I don’t mean to make light of this very serious situation and I do feel for all the people that are experiencing horrible hardships but I love to laugh. Always good to joke around in these difficult times.

Poor Clyde is noodleless right now. Our order for the kind he can eat still hasn’t arrived. Usually that company gets stuff to us faster than greased lightening.  He may be in for another spaghetti on potatoes night.  He did like that but spaghetti without noodles is just meat sauce. 

I think we will survive!

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist is Pleased with Church Innovations and The Whole Kitten Kaboodle…

Blue Ridge Parkway Artist

Please Check out My Story on Youtube!

 

I was so pleased to see one minister’s great solution to holding services with his congregation!  He got on the roof of the church and the parishioners were in their cars!  What a smart guy!  I wish all congregations that were determined to meet together would follow his example.

We need to keep our distance right now. Also, nothing wrong with online services.  I have been playing the piano at our church for years and will be happy to play again but it is nice to have a break. There are over 800 hymns and I certainly don’t know them all.

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler

As I have mentioned before, Clyde has a weird disease that prevents him from eating a lot of foods in all food groups except meat.  He was in the habit of picking up a number of items at a specialty store but stopped that when this awful virus took over.

One of the things he can’t eat is flour so we get special kinds of noodles for spaghetti.  We ran out yesterday and he asked for potatoes as a side dish substitute.  Our order in the mail still hasn’t arrived. 

When dinner was ready I had to tease him a little. 

Okay, man without a noodle, dinner is served. 

Are you saying I am a man without a noodle that is going to eat the whole kitten kaboodle? 

Right. Why did I marry a writer? Enjoy your potato spaghetti!
