Daily Painting, Beach Scene, "Reel Her In" 8x10" Palette Knife Painting
 |
| Purchase here 145 + shipping I suppose this means I will repeat the process again at some unknown point in the future. |
This time I painted with a palette knife and brush. I like the texture that can be achieved with the knife. I also have added some great "ocean" colors to my palette.
Who knows....maybe the next time I paint this scene, it will be an abstract!
This is the first painting. Do you have a preference?

Petite Garden Pink Peonies

Oil on Archival Panel
Petite Garden Pink Peonies was one of my new peony paintings in Flower Mound Studio today. The clock is still ticking, and if I hold my breath and no one sneezes, the delicate fresh peonies may last another day or 2! I didn't brave the shopping crowds today, and the puggies were quite happy for me to stay home at their beck and call. The only time I ventured out was this morning with the hubby for a brisk 3 mile walk. It was windy and the trees were turning and the leaves were like sparkling bits of gold falling all around us. Visit my art bloggy for a picture from my grand adventure into the wilds of Flower Mound!
Petite Garden Peonies and the studio models at rest!

Pink Zone Peonies - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina
Pink Zone Peonies
by Nancy Medina
12X12
Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Pink Zone Peonies is the daily newbie in Flower Mound Studio, celebrating the Day 3 of the fresh peony extravaganza bonanza, as well as a day of feasting and thanks. I hope your holiday was beautiful, filled with loved ones, comfort, laughter, and, even some little four footed snugglers. Right now I have one little puggy girl snoozing with her chin on my foot, and another in my lap resting her chin on my wrist. The important thing is, the pugs are happy! I'm happy too - I love painting peonies, they are so frilly and unkempt. Even their leaves are quite a tangle, reminding me of the old adage, every crooked line can use a bend in it! Happy Thanksgiving to you flower friends, may your pumpkin pie have extravagant portions of home made whippy creme on it!
The studio models take a bow!

Day 2, Cinque Terre and Lake Como Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
"Painted Houses," Riomaggiore ©2014 Niki Gulley • 9" x 12" Textured oil painting
Cinque Terre and Lake Como Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 2, Morning Location: Riomaggiore
After a good night's rest, we took the train that connects the five cities along the Italian coast to the southern most town of Riomaggiore. This morning the temperature was perfect, but we had more cloud cover with only occasional breaks of sunshine. Our painters set up our easels to capture this beautiful view of the colorful town and their ocean overlook while the photographers and tourists checked out the town and surroundings.
When we had finished painting and exploring and eaten a delicious seafood lunch, we caught the scenic boat ride back to Vernazza, enjoying the ocean view of each town and its colorful architecture perched along the coast way.

Niki Gulley’s passion for painting began in grade school when she had to draw something as mundane as shoes for art class, and loved every minute of it. Her parents enrolled her in private lessons and she was hooked. Following her childhood in Chicago, Niki relocated to Dallas to pursue an art major at SMU. Since she disliked the freezing Illinois winters, Dallas seemed like the place to stay after graduating.
Next, Gulley entered the world of advertising, working as art director for a local magazine. After a few years passed, Niki felt like something was missing. So she started painting again every free moment. This is what she had been missing and she began to feel fulfilled again.
It is from this feeling of true joy that Niki translates onto canvas. She seeks to capture the beauty of our landscape, utilizing vivid colors in oil paint and pastels to convey a particular mood. Gulley invites you to reconnect with nature and escape day-to-day responsibilities along with her in these creations.
Mountain Sunset Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, "Blue Ridge Sunset" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil SOLD
This mountain sunset painting is a result of our most recent trip to Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. We were there for the beautiful leaf viewing season, and it was spectacular! We came home to Florida on Halloween and missed the incredible 22" of snow that accumulated the next day. I am sure that cut the leaf season short.
Here in Florida, we don't have falling leaves, or snow. That has not stopped us from getting in the Christmas spirit. If you have an art lover on your list, check out my Etsy shop. I have a large selection of original paintings as well as gift certificates.

The leaves were not the only spectacular sight! I find the mountains as fascinating as the ocean with it's constantly changing moods.

This is me, having fun!!
This month, we will be making our first winter trip to our North Carolina home....I am hoping to see that beautiful landscape covered in snow.

Abstract Landscape | Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Seeing Better Days by Carol Schiff | 6x8 Oil
This abstract landscape of an isolated structure in blazing sunlight is a memory of the days I lived in Louisiana and Texas. Often we would find these abandoned structures awaiting a new life.
But it could also be from the countryside of Arizona or even North Dakota, where the weather is very rugged. Can you tell I moved a lot in my life? Yes, I spent years and years following my Air Force husband from location to location. We are so happy to have spread our roots in Florida and North Carolina.
I have to be in the mood to paint with a palette knife, but when I am.....it is really fun (and in my case messy). Most of my favorite artwork (by me) has a least, some areas of knife work. I really love the texture which I feel brings a whole new dimension to the piece.
Thanks so much for viewing my abstract landscape today. I hope you will pin it!

Daily Painting | Small Oil Painting | Small Seascape |Tropical Waters by Carol Schiff | 6x8" Oil SOLD
If you follow this blog, you know how much I like to paint seascapes. Not just any seascapes, but scenes from my own little piece of the Atlantic.
 |
| SOLD |
The waves were coming in quickly on this day. I think a "tropical depression" was off shore. Tropical depression is a weatherman's term, several steps below a hurricane, but usually meaning the winds will kick up to some degree and rain is on the horizon. Of course, in Florida, this time of the year.....rain is always on the horizon.
This photo is a little wonky.....sorry! When I take photos of my paintings, I usually have 5-10 paintings to photograph, trying to get 5-6 shots of each. I get a little production line going...and I guess I didn't pay much attention to how this one was lined up :)
This summer, we have been tied to home and we are missing our annual trips to the mountains. We will be there soon and will really appreciate getting a chance to leave this hot and humid weather behind for a stay in the cool mountain country. How do you spend your summer?
Peach Sorbet Peonies and Romantic Kitty Finds a Home - Paintings by Nancy Medina
Peach Sorbet Peony Bouquet

Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Sold
Peach Sorbet is the newest large work on the easel, as I paint these fresh peonies as quickly as I can - after all, how many more times this winter will I find peonies in the market? I was thrilled to get a note informing me that the new owner of my latest Romantic Kitty painting was very happy with their new acquisition. Not only that, their kitty, Spike, liked it, too! Visit my bloggy to see the furry purry evidence! Though, I suspect Spike was more interested in the shipping box than the painting...
