Daily Painting 1450 Beach Morning Plein Air Alla Prima
For You Iris Palette Knife Painting by Judy Mackey
"For You"
24 x 18 x .75 inches, Oil on Gallery wrapped canvas
This painting will be going to the Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas for review. This is actually a study for a larger painting I'm planning to do. Instead of a vase, I thought it might look interesting to have hands holding it in a bunch.
Email me if you're interested in this painting or one similar to this.
'Where Spirit Lies' By Irish Artist Maria Noonan-McDermott
'Where Spirit Lies', Oil, 60cm x 50cm
'Where Spirit Lies' is a new painting reflecting the beauty that surrounds me here in the North West of Ireland. It will form part of a collection for my solo exhibition, by the same title, in the Roundabout Gallery in County Sligo on October 4th.
http://www.voiceboxart.com
Maria Noonan-McDermott's work is highly original; her creative and imaginative one-off pieces ensure her reputation for innovative and inspiring artwork that is eminently collectable and truly unique.
Maria currently works from her studio in Co. Leitrim. She has been painting for over twenty years and is well established and respected having contributed successfully to many gallery and public exhibitions throughout her career.
Her work, she says,
"...is about searching for the ultimate statement through colour and form, giving her paintings a voicebox for the inner soul we all possess, spiritual and mysterious."
Her style is distinctly recognisable as she paints with knife, confidently applying layer upon layer, enhancing the quality of light and movement and allowing the texture of the paint to play a key role in the structure of her work.
On show her paintings demand attention, grip the imagination and reward the curiosity of our senses.

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.

In late October and November Provence is a blaze of colour, with the orchards and vineyards turning from green to red and yellow. The tree in this painting stood at the edge of a roadside (or 'chemin') next to a vineyard. The leaves on the tree have completely turned to burnished gold, although the vines are just beginning to change colour. The reddish earth is extremely dry after the drought of summer.

I can't remember a time that I didn't have an artistic pursuit but I found my true love with painting. Although I enjoy exploring with different techniques and materials, I primarily work in oils with an abstract style. Thick paint placed with a palette knife and strong geometric shapes are often found in my paintings.
After earning a degree in Business Admin/Marketing, I went on to several "Big Girl" corporate jobs and then owned and ran a design business in Hawaii, importing antiques from the mainland. My education was rounded out through the UC Berkeley Extension Art Program and the College of Marin Art and Design Program. I am fortunate to have had wonderful instructors as well as the insightful critiques of my fun, fellow painters.

For Sale
I continue with the abstract theme. I loved it yesterday and got up in the middle of the night to look at my work, as I often do, and thought maybe I could touch up a few areas. I do not like to go back into a painting. I know when a project is complete when the changes I make do not improve it. I am at that point now. So, I am calling it finished!
Follow the blogspot link to view more of my work or contact me. I would love to hear from you.
In fact, it would make my day. Thank you for looking.

Painting this was truly fun. The fresh air, the warmth of the sun, the sounds of the waves crashing against the beach. It’s a wonderful feeling to paint on location, and I think that comes through in the painting itself. This is “Keyhole Rock,” a landmark in Laguna Beach California. I once taught a Plein Air Workshop here, as I shared all my inside tips and techniques with other artists.
My new Plein Air Workshop begins in a couple of weeks on October 6. We’ll meet for 5 Saturday mornings from 9am to noon and paint on locations around Orange County. The classes are for all skill levels and I give loads of personal assistance.
If you would like to join the group I’ll email you details.

These huge scheffleras are growing in the back yard, they are also
know as umbrella plants. The scheffleras have grown so large they are
taller than some of the palm trees. They are around 30 or 40 feet

I was tickled pink today to receive the Dallas Arboretum Adult Education catalog and see my Blue Glass Asters Sunflower painting featured. I'll be teaching two fall workshops at the Arboretum in the next few months, and I sure hope you can join me. The Arboretum is a perfect venue for flower painting, not only because of the amazing gardens and waterfalls and paths and trees, but because the staff there is superb.
