Texas Bluebonnet Painting by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

SOLD • "Blue Descent," Texas Hill Country ©2014 Niki Gulley

24" x 36" textured oil painting

JUST SOLD! Inspired by a trip to the Texas hill country, I wanted you to feel the warmth and beauty as sun sets over this carpet of bluebonnets and Texas wildflowers. Touched with a hint of mystery from the long shadows being cast and a sense of romanticism from the time of day and the two oaks reaching for one another, this piece is loaded with pigment and thick oil paint. In person, the painting leaps off the canvas and the colors almost dance from all of the texture and energy!

"Spring's Glory, Texas Hill Country" by Niki Gulley

"Spring's Glory, Texas Hill Country" ©2012 Niki Gulley

SOLD • 48" x 30" textured painting on wrap around canvas

Just Sold! "Spring's Glory" was inspired by a recent trip to the Texas Hill Country. This spring conditions were perfect, and the bluebonnets were amazing! While we were near Fredericksburg, we took a scenic drive along the Willow City Look and as we approached the top of a hill about half way around, we were greeted by this gorgeous view of the rolling hills and bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush in full bloom. Then, to top it off the sun was setting in the distance casting its golden glow and backlighting the wildflowers. I had to capture the magical moment, enhancing the kaleidoscope of colors in the sky and along the ground. Arranging clouds, the road and rows of bluebonnets in rhythmic sweeping shapes, create a harmonious landscape that flows with light, texture and color, and suggest a feeling of optimism about what's to come.
