Sleepy Head Daisies was painted around midnight-ish last night, after finishing a few other paintings. It was a prolific day in Flower Mound Studio! Today has been just as busy, the hubby put together my new shelving unit specially designed for lining up wet paintings while I went to town with the tape gun, packing up paintings heading to new homes in Arizona, Maryland and Colorado. And now, for the scoop on the giveaway! Read more....

Rustic Herd, Contemporary Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Rustic Herd
I could not get a well lit image as darkness hit last night as I finished. I adjusted the lighting so here it is. This is one of my painted pony horizon herds heading to Park City Utah. They ask for earth tones and they got earth tones. A little bit of jewel tones accent here and there on this contemporary Horse Painting.

Stacey and I downloaded the HGTV app for decorating and have had a blast finding our our personal styles along with over 200 home images to prompt creative decorating ideas. It is called FOLIO by HGTV. We both recommend it. I will try and keep some images coming on the blog as I strike out and do something different and more daring in my home decorating.

"Orange Spark" by Karla Nolan, unframed miniature palette knife oil painting, colorado, broncos, rocky mountains, sunset
Okay,
okay, the Broncos lost. I'm not a gung-ho football fan by any means,
but many relatives and friends who are near and dear to me really did
look forward to the Super Bowl and the idea of the Broncos winning. I
know they're disappointed, so this art blog is for them -- there's
always next year! (The lower photo is an example of the artwork framed,
please note that it's sold unframed.)

"Life is an onion and one peels it crying."--French proverb
Escapism. Defying time. Serenity and solace. Reliving treasured moments...the reasons I paint and make artwork. The creative acts are surely the most pleasant and yet difficult of all. Color and form are special friends. The challenge of perfecting artwork is monumental and exhilarating. This effort has grown to be both friend and family, which are the two most important aspects of my life. Judaica is my most challenging art...Hebrew and I don't always get along!
I'm mainly self-taught in art, relying on intuition, experimentation, benefiting from studying books, visiting museums, galleries and learning painting techniques from other artist friends/relatives. I've studied pastels with Clive Tyler, taken oils with Daniel Edmondson. My newest medium is painting on glass, inspired by an Italian master, bringing this art technique home and applying my own topics. My oils are mainly with palette knife.
This art style might be called "abstract realism", an oxymoron in its own right. Favorite contemporary artists include Cruciani, L Horowitz, Berberian, S Stork, C Tyler, D Edmondson.

"Vintage Stockings" Oil Palette Knife Paintings by Hallie Kohn Art
These paintings were commissioned for use in an establishment being opened in the area. I was asked to come up with five small Art Deco/Great Gatsby pieces that were sexy and fun and kind of given free reign. The client wanted black and white so as to reproduce the image in a variety of ways. I knew I was on the right track when my husband commented on how sexy they were!

is an award winning artist who paints exclusively with a palette knife. She holds a fine art degree and has worked as a professional graphic designer for many years. She began painting in oil again after taking a palette knife workshop through the Copley Society of Art in Boston and was immediately hooked. The thick, painterly, yet highly detailed strokes of color are trademarks of her style.
Textured Hydrangeas Oil Painting by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley
12" x 12" textured oil on canvas
I painted these hydrangeas with extremely thick oil paint and palette knife. The resulting canvas is loaded with texture, color and energy! I've painted it on 1 and 1/2 inch deep stretcher bars, with the image continuing around the edges so that it can be hung as is frameless for a contemporary look.
These hydrangeas look great hung alone to brighten up a little spot, or in a grouping with some of my other 12x12 florals. Hang them horizontally, vertically, on a diagonal or stacked. If interested in seeing companion pieces, please e-mail Niki Gulley for options.
To see more of my textured flower paintings, please visit NikiGulley.com.
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.

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?

What is your defining moment? I'll never forget mine. I was eighteen years old, life closed in on me and I hit bottom. God reached down, literally saved my soul and brought me His peace and saved me from a life and eternity without Him. "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever." - Psalm 23:6
My new 11"x14" acrylic palette knife painting is titled, "Defining Moment". It represents our seemingly abstract life and the path we must take to find our own deliverance. To inquire about purchasing this work, EMAIL ME. To see more of my available work, visit my WEBSITE.
Jill has been selling her artwork to collector's in the United States and abroad for twenty-nine years. Her artwork is sold nationally in catalogues, retail chains, and Fine Art galleries.

Abstract Landscape, "God's Glory" by Carol Schiff, Palette Knife Abstract
We were driving through the fields of Georgia one morning, on one of our many journeys from Florida to North Carolina, when the sun burst over the horizon. I was so happy I had my camera handy.
Does it show that I had a ball painting this one?

Maybe I went a little crazy with the colors.
Speaking of journeys, this is my second attempt at painting this image. The first attempt was several years ago and is residing in Paris these days.
It's a little more subdued.

Daisies, Delphs and Tipped Over Pears
by Nancy Medina
20X16
Oil on Archival Panel
Daisies, Delphs and Tipped Over Pears is one of my newest color convections in Flower Mound Studio, where we are celebrating today because I got some GREAT news I'll be sharing with you in my next art newsletter. And I promise it's not just about the new bakery that opened around the corner, which happens to make the best chocolate mochas with homemade whipped creme you ever tasted. I enjoyed creating Daisies and Delphs, putting a little pink into the tablecloth was fun, though I confess I ate one of the pears about an hour ago. And it was delicious.

An ode to my home state...two stately palms residing on the banks of the intra-coastal waterway.
