Day 3 - June Challenge - Father's Fashion Contemporary Abstract Artist Kristye Addison Dudley

Hello Everyone, My father passed away in 2005. I miss him so much. He never had a dull moment...EVER. He could always find something fun to do. He also loved wearing bow ties. In an interesting twist of fate, my husband also loves bow ties and I love seeing him in them. Here's to the dapper bow tie wearing Dads.

Day 2 June Challenge - Father's Fashion Contemporary Abstract Artist Kristye Addison Dudley

Hello Everyone, Here is Day 2, of my Father's Day Fashion tribute. Dark blue suit, blue tie on a strong Dad. This series is making me really miss my Father. His birthday would be next week. Bow ties were his favorite. If there is an outfit that reminds you of your father, let me know and I would be happy to paint one just for you.

Day 1 - New Art Challenge for June - Father's Day - Kristye Addison Dudley

Hello Everyone, I have been working diligently on a very large 7ft by 3ft commission and it's almost complete. Now I am gearing up for my next round of new paintings. During the 30 paintings in 30 days challenge in April, I really worked hard to paint every day on new artwork. During May, my family traveled and although I was busy painting the commission, I got out of my daily painting/posting routine. So I think it's time for a new challenge! For the rest of the month of June, 25 days, I will be painting very small work, 4" x 6" to 8" x 10", and selling each one for only $50! My goal is to sell them all! I know that's a huge goal, but I might as well try right? So if you don't have a Father's Day gift yet, this maybe just the personal gift you are looking for (message requests to me).

My father's advice

Dock at Sunrise - Mixed Media - Watercolor and Photo © Kristye Addison Dudley I was always Daddy's little girl. I was basically his shadow as soon as I could walk. He was an architect and a professor. I still consider him to be the smartest person I've ever known. He taught me to draw and see the world in a completely new way. When it was time for me to choose a major in college he asked me, "What would you do whether you got paid for it or not?". I said I would travel the world and paint. So, I majored in art. Now that my husband is a Daddy, I can see my little girl following him around! And already at 14 months she is a total Daddy's little girl. I can't be jealous of all the attention he gets, now I know how my mother must have felt. I am sure that he will be giving KJ lots of advice and I hope that she knows that one day she can live out her wildest dreams and fulfill her life's passions. My Father's birthday was on Monday June 13, he would ha...
