Description
Osprey Evening is an intense oil painting of this beautiful hawk flying by a lake at sunset. I don't painting a lot of wildlife but when I do I want it to be special. I am particularly pleased with the sensuous colors and textures that are as strong in the land and water as they are in the osprey.
I have learned a lot of about birds from my husband, Clyde Kessler, who is a well-known naturalist in the New River Valley. He has given me many ideas for painting vistas from the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway and surrounding area. His discovery of the endangered Mitchel Satyr butterfly in 1998 is considered to be one of the most important wildlife finds in the second half of the twentieth century in Virginia. I hardly knew one bird from the other before I married him and now I am familiar with quite a number of different species.

I have won numerous awards, including awards from Dorothy Gillespie, May Stevens, Frank Webb, and Daniel Greene.

I taught in the Art Department of Radford University for twenty years as Assistant professor. I taught Art Appreciation, Drawing, Oil Painting, Watercolor painting, Foundations, and served as Gallery Director for one year.
I enjoyed working with Art and Design students. My Art Appreciation course was hands-on and I received many compliments on my course curriculum. Oftentimes I had students that were not enrolled in the class ask me if they could sit in for a class. I have fond memories of those guest students! What a great compliment for me!
My best-selling print, "Reaching Out", was selected from over three million works of art on Fine Art America to be on the set of The Mindy Project and I appeared with my artwork on The Hour of Joy on FoxTV out of Roanoke on March 10th 2013.
I live to paint and it is important to me to find homes for all of my creations. I have originals and prints in thirty-two states,Washington D.C., Canada, Germany, Russia, England, India, Switzerland, and Australia.
I also have paintings in the collection of Hollywood actress Morgan Fairchild.
