If you didn't see me on FoxTV27 out of Roanoke on March 10th, you can check out my appearance on The Hour of Joy website! It was a great show and I enjoyed talking with the next Oprah! My appearance with three of my large paintings was on Episode 5 Stardom.

I am pleased to announce that my best-selling print, "Reaching Out", is part of the set of the new sit-com, "The Mindy Project".The print was chosen from 3,164,730 images from 119,821 artists on the site where I sell prints from my portfolio. The drawing is in the main character's office and so far there have been many shots of it on the 2nd, 4th, 5th, 8th, and 18th episodes. Be sure to look at my Youtube video, Kendall Kessler Beautiful Nude Drawing on The Mindy Project. I am also an amateur pianist so I included a piano selection.I have a number of other videos including one about my portrait work with a portrait of internationally acclaimed violinist David Garrett.

I am a professional artist and have been making part of my living by my sales and teaching at Radford University. My artwork has taken over my life so I quit teaching so I can be a full-time professional artist. I seek to celebrate life in my work and spread my joy to everyone. Art patrons admire my intense use of color and texture to communicate my emotional reaction to the beauty all around us. I am an award-winning professional artist and I have paintings in private collections in twenty-one states, Washington, D.C.,Canada, Germany, and Australia. My work has been seen throughout the United States in national, international, and local shows and I have won numerous awards including awards from Dorothy Gillespie, May Stevens, Frank Webb, and Daniel Greene.
