"Painted Spring" New Bluebonnet oil painting by Texas Artist Niki Gulley
"Painted Spring" ©2015 Niki Gulley
24" x 12" textured oil painting
I painted these Texas Bluebonnets, Indian Paintbrush and Primrose with extremely thick oil paint and palette knives to achieve depth and texture. The resulting image comes to life and is loaded with color and energy. In this vertical wildflower series, I've framed the paintings in espresso floater frames so that you can still see the textured oil paint continuing around the edges of the canvas. These Texas wildflowers look great hung alone or in a grouping, too!
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.

"Baby Owl" by Lynda Cookson
"Baby Owl" is rather pertinent for us at this time of the year when our Barn Owls and Screech Owls are back in the garden, hooting their haunting hoots (or, in the case of the Screech Owl, pretending to murder someone!!) perched on the roof of my studio barn.

"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.

Golden Citadel, by New York artist, Celeste Plowden
I learned the art of acrylic and pastel painting through private instruction, after having spent my career as a designer of printed fabrics in the New York market place. I am a graduate of the College of Design, Art and Architecture at the University of Cincinnati, with a major in the History of Art, 1977. Later, I studied printed textile design at Parsons School of Design, in New York. Immediately afterward, I began free lance work for several design studios in the garment district of NYC, where I did re-coloration work for printed apparel fabrics, and sold my own designs through Bread and Butter Designs,also located in New York. In addition, during the 1980's and 1990's, I designed a number of needlecraft and stencil books for Dover Publications. Currently, I am working on a series of exotic birds and other animals done in acrylic paint, with a palette knife, for texture and brilliant color. I consider my paintings to be representational or impressionistic in nature, and I use fantasy colors because what I see often makes me feel these colors,and what would make an interesting composition, rather than using realistic colors.
Just Because by Kay Wyne
Just Because
36" x 36" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Floral Palette Knife Painting
My inspiration for this painting was a beautiful arrangement that son in-law Wes gave to daughter Lindsay. I asked what the occasion was......."just because" was the answer that I got. I used thick strokes with the palette knife.
This painting is currently hanging at Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas. Sharon Hodges, Steve Hahn and I were interviewed for an article published last week in the local paper. Click for the article about Dutch Art Gallery's 50 year anniversary. I am working on a series of florals for an upcoming show...and getting ready for Christmas! Thanks for looking at this blog, Kay

I enjoy doing works with plenty of texture. I think it brings an additional quality to the piece and I like the way viewers want to reach out and touch it.
Are you able to choreograph where you want your painting to go, or are you flying by the seat of your pants like me?

OTTER,6X8, OIL, SOLD
Don't you think otters are just the cutest things on earth? I love the way they swim on their backs. The only thing I don't love is when they catch the baby ducks and chow down...but that is nature!
I have been out of town the last week or so. I want to thank everyone who was so kind to review my blog each day and especially those of you who left such nice comments. I am really behind the eight ball at the moment with lots of projects to check off the list, so I probably won't get around to replying to each one of you individually, but I want you to know how important you are to me. I take great pride in your comments and appreciate all the specifics you mention. It helps me have insight into how my work appears to others. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I hope to get back to my daily browsing of your sites soon.

Seascape, "California Bliss", 6x12" SOLD
It always amazes me how different the Atlantic is from the Pacific. Here, on the east coast, we have mornings when the ocean looks like a big lake, hardly a ripple breaks the surface.
I don't have as much experience with the west coast, but it appears to be much more intense. I have only been to the Pacific in northern California, where it is a deep, beautiful blue, unlike the semi-tropical waters we have in Florida, which can be a bright turquoise.
The reference image for this painting came from Shelly Smart's blog, A Year at the Beach. She is not posting it anymore, but it remains a fascinating journal. She posted images of her beach every day for a year. Thank you Shelly, for sharing your images with me.

$35 – CITY HOLIDAY SNOWFALL by TOM BROWN
CITY HOLIDAY SNOWFALL
6x6 Oil by TOM
BROWN
This will make the perfect Holiday gift for someone
special or for your own collection.
It is definitely a conversation starter, as well as an interesting and unique work of art I am sure you will enjoy for years to come. It was created by transforming an ordinary piece of used cardboard into a winter cityscape to help us view our everyday surroundings in a new light.
The cardboard had been part of a shipping container. I applied oil paints directly onto surface, carefully incorporating portions of existing creases and torn surface areas. I wanted to deliberately include some of these existing marks and creases to reflect the passage of time on the walls. Large areas of the cardboard were left untouched.
This piece is painted with genuine oil paints on a 6x6 inch piece of heavyweight corrugated cardboard. It is signed on the front in the lower right corner. It can be displayed on a tabletop easel or it will fit in a standard-sized 6x6 frame.
All paintings in my Etsy Gallery are offered at “Gift-Giving” prices right now. You even get FREE SHIPPING for additional paintings purchased at the same time.
Beat the crowd because each painting is one-of-a-kind and when it’s gone, it’s gone. So don’t hesitate. It’s all first come, first served. Happy Holidays!
